IBZ (International Bibliography of Periodical Literature) Tip Sheet
For further assistance, contact Jen Tellman.
The Library will not have all the journals indexed. You will have to look in our catalog to see if we own the journals you want and get their call numbers to find them.
You can either do a simple search and then combine terms to modify your results or click on Advanced Search to more easily combine terms.
Clicking on Review will let you combine terms from earlier searches.
Click on terms that you wish to combine and then click on “combine” on the bottom of the screen.
To search for a particular phrase, you must use quotation marks, for example “Monastic Reforms”
A “?”at the end of a word retrieves variants. For example, “heres?” will retrieve heresy, heresies, and here's.
