Getting Started with OneSearch

A guide to using Velma K. Waters Library's OneSearch discovery tool to find research resources.

Finding Journals


You can access Journal search from the main OneSearch landing on the library's homepage by opening the Journals tab.

From the library homepage, the Journal tab is the fourth tab from the left on the OneSearch interface.

It can also be accessed by clicking "Journal Search" at the top of any results list.

Journal Search tab can be found as the first tab in the row of search options at the top of any OneSearch results page.

Journal Search Filters

Filters for Journal Search can be found on the left side of the screen on the computer, and can be opened from the funnel icon on mobile.

Using these filters, you can limit your search results to only journals using a peer-review process, or ones that publish under an open access model.



Steps for Opening an Online Journal

Preview Journal Contents: In the results list, you can click "View Journal Contents" to browse a list of a journal's available volumes and issues. This will redirect you from OneSearch to the BrowZine program (see sidebar for more information).

Step One: To open a journal, click its linked title from the results list.

Step Two: Scroll down to "View Online" and select any database listed. Some journals are hosted in more than one database. Please take note of the availability dates beneath each database listed. Some journals may only be available from a specific range of years.

Online journals can be opened by selecting their linked titles in the item record under View Online. Availability dates are listed below.

Step Three: To access most online library resources in full text, you will be prompted to log in using your myLEO or SSO credentials.

Search for Articles Published by a Specific Journal


When you have a journal's page open in OneSearch, you can search for individual articles published in that journal by keyword, title, or author.
