Finding Articles

−

For most assignments in linguistics and translation, our Discovery Service will give you enough articles to work with. This short video shows you how to get the best from Discovery.

Sometimes, however, you may want to try specific databases or journals - perhaps your lecturer has recommended particular sources as a good way of finding articles or perhaps you just want fewer articles to look at. This section lists key sources relevant to Linguistics and Translation.

• Why Use Journal Articles?

−

Scholarly, peer-reviewed journals are highly regarded as a source of academic information because they include expert opinions, research findings and references to follow up.

They are written by specialised professionals and academics (such as your lecturers) from around the world.

Finding, reading and referencing relevant journal articles will help you get the highest marks.
