Virtual Reference Librarian 2

Rebecca came to me with the question, "I have found some articles in the June 2008 issue of Teaching Children Mathematics that I would like to read. How can I obtain these articles?" I restated her question to make sure I had the journal title and issue date correct. Once I was certain we were on the same page, I directed her to the Library main page, and clicked on the Journal Title Search. We typed in the journal title and clicked search. The journal was found with online access so I showed her how to log in using your banner ID number. Then using the drop down button for the year, we changed it to 2008, and were able to find the May and August issues since there were no June issues. She was able to then look for the articles that she wanted.
