CHAPTER 17 Conducting Inquiry ARTICLES IN NEWSPAPERS, MAGAZINES, AND JOURNALS 181 The most basic index to articles is the Reader’s Guide to Periodical Literature. This guide lists articles from more than one hundred magazines by subject and author. As with an encyclopedia, you should begin by thinking of the various headings under which the issue might be classified. Then select the volumes for the appropriate years (more current years are listed in unbound pamphlet form) and look up those headings. The entries will list the title and author of the article and the name and issue of the magazine it appeared in. Many other indexes are available, even in moderate-size libraries. Following is a partial list. (For a complete list, consult Eugene O. Sheehy’s Guide to Reference Books.) *Social Science Index Applied Science and Technology Index *Humanities Index Art Index New York Times Index Biography Index Essay and General Literature Index Business Periodicals Index General Science Index Biological and Agricultural Index Education Index Book Review Index United States Government Business Periodicals Index Publications: Monthly Catalog Engineering Index Index to Legal Periodicals Music Index MLA International Bibliography Philosopher’s Index Magazine Index Religion Index One: Periodicals After you locate the article and read it, be sure to check the reader response in the letters-to-the-editor section of subsequent issues. Most newspapers and magazines have a letters section, and it will often provide reaction by informed readers supporting or challenging the ideas in the article. In weekly magazines, responses usually appear two issues after the article; in fortnightlies and monthlies, one issue later. BOOKS In addition to the lists of books provided in encyclopedias and those you find mentioned in the articles you read, you can consult your library’s card or computer catalog, the key to the books available on its shelves. † Occasionally, if your library is small or if the issue you are investigating is obscure, the library holdings may be limited. In such *Before 1965 these indexes were combined under the title International Index. † One valuable source of information is college textbooks in fields related to the issue you are investigating.
182 PART THREE A Strategy cases, as in any situation in which you are having difficulty finding information or using the reference books, ask your librarian for help. (Remember that librarians are professionals trained to solve the kinds of research problems you may encounter.) COMPUTER DATABASES AND ABSTRACTING SERVICES Modern information retrieval technology has made it easier than ever to conduct a data search. The technology continues to evolve rapidly, but the cost of conversion from old systems to new can be considerable. Therefore, what is available in the marketplace will not necessarily be available on a particular campus. Your campus librarian can tell you whether your campus library has the research tools mentioned here and, if not, what comparable tools are available. The principal change that is taking place in library technology is the conversion of the print index to an electronic index. The kind of information traditionally found in the Reader’s Guide to Periodical Literature is now accessible in, for example, InfoTrak, a system available in one of three forms: (a) as an electronic bibliographic guide without text, (b) as a bibliographic guide with some text available on CDs, and (c) as a complete online service. Where the first and second forms of this system are used, researchers still make extensive use of bound copies of periodicals and microfiche records. InfoTrak is generally available in public libraries and in small academic libraries. A number of scholarly electronic indexes are in use, particularly in academic libraries. A popular one is the General Academic Index, which covers 960 scholarly titles in the arts and humanities as well as in the sciences and social sciences. This source indexes many of the same general periodicals as InfoTrak, but it also includes many scholarly journals not indexed there. Lexis-Nexis and Westlaw are the most widely used legal indexes. Other technical indexes include PsycINFO, Health and Psychosocial Instruments (HAPI), and two specialized indexes from Medline: PubMed and Internet Grateful Med. The World Wide Web offers many other sources of information. Ask your librarian about the computer databases available to you, such as PsycINFO and PsycLIT. Also check the abstracting services available in your library. Among the best known are Psychological Abstracts, Sociological Abstracts, America: History and Life, and Dissertation Abstracts International. INTERNET RESOURCES In the 1970s the Defense Department began coordinating research networks. Then in the 1980s the personal computer began to gain popularity,
