Children's Literature: Journals

A Library Services Subject Guide

Using Journals

The Library provides a wide range of journals. The vast majority are online, with a few print titles available to view only in the Library. If you're new to journals we highly recommend you read the document below, which provides a useful overview of what journals are, why they are useful, and how to access them.

If you read the document above, you'll see that to find journals and articles we recommend library tools like WorldCat, A-Z Databases and BrowZine, backed-up by search engines like Google Scholar. Another great tool – and one we highly recommend - is the browser extension LibKey Nomad (installation instructions are here). Particularly useful off-campus, this recognises you as a BGU student and, if you have access to a particular article, displays an onscreen alert.

The Four Corners and Hullabaloo!

The Four Corners is a free children’s literature newsletter published by the the Literature and Literacies (LiLi) research unit at BGU to promote our children's literature collection. It is the successor to Hullabaloo!, which was published by the Library between 2005 and 2019. Both newsletters are a worthwhile read and electronic versions of all issues are available online. A complete index to Hullabaloo! can be accessed here.
