Searching for full-text newspaper articles
If the newspaper article is not available full text in the newspaper database and you wish to locate it, there are several ways to determine if Marquette Libraries subscribe to the full-text newspaper:
If you already have the citation to a newspaper article:
- Use MARQCAT. Search by Title and enter the title of the NEWSPAPER, NOT the title or author of the article.
If you are looking at citations from within a database:
-
Use the FindIt@MU icon in the citation you are interested in. This will open another window and do one of two things
- Display a list of databases with links. This indicates the FindIt widget may have found a source for electronic copy of the article. Click on the link to determine if a full text option is located.
- Displays only a link to MARQCAT. Click the MARQCAT link to search the catalog. The journal may be available in print or fulltext through a source not searchable by the FindIt widget.
If you do not find the newspaper title using FindIt@MU or MARQCAT, request the article through Interlibrary Loan.
