Where are the journals located?
Journals are located on the third floor of the Library and are arranged alphabetically by title. • Journals published in the current and previous year are shelved in the current journal’s section • Bound journals are kept in the regular journal stacks • Most reference journals are located in the reference area. All Osler journals are housed in the Osler Library of the History of Medicine.
Most recent issues are located on the 3rd floor, but the latest issues of science journals are shelved on the 9th floor. Older issues are shelved in the stacks by call number (just like books). Microfilm and microfiche subscriptions are housed in the Microform Center on Lower Level 2. By searching BobCat, you can find out a periodical’s location, either in the library building or electronically.
• Issues within the last five years are shelved in alphabetical order in the “Current Periodicals” section. They can be found on the main (second) floor on the West side of the building. • Journals older than five years are shelved with the rest of our collection. These are stored in bound volumes and arranged by their call number.
