Short guide to researching the Crusades, in English, 11th-14th centuries. Last updated 06-27-2023

Journal Articles

To find scholarly journal articles, use a periodical index to identify possible articles to read.  Sometimes you can click through to the full text of the article from entries you find in the index you use.  If not, then look up the title of the journal containing the article you want in E Books and Journals If we do not have the journal electronically, then look for it in Books and Media, to see if we have a paper copy. Some journals are available both online and in paper copies, some only in one form or the other.  Many of our paper journals are now in Remote Storage; if so, there will be a "Get This" button in the entry.  Click there, fill out the form, and the volume you want will be brought from Remote Storage to the Circulation Desk to check out.  If we do not have the journal at all, then try to obtain your article by using interlibrary loan
