Leyburn Library has initiated a subscription to the Blackwell Synergy collection of online journals, which is particularly strong in the social sciences.
Our collection includes over 700 online journals, including over 600 which are new to W&L.
For example, the 50 journals categorized as Politics and Political Science include Political Psychology, Presidential Studies Quarterly, and European Journal of Political Research.
Links to these journals will appear in Annie, the library's Periodical Finder, and elsewhere in our Web site.
One of the nice things about this collection is the fact that you can opt to have the tables of contents of new issues -- complete with links to the texts of articles -- delivered to you via e-mail or RSS feed. For more information, see "Continue reading...," below.
To set up e-mail delivery, you should register in the Blackwell site, creating your own account (password, e-mail, etc.).
Then go to any individual journal's page, such as the Journal of Political Philosophy and select the "Sign Up for E-Mail Alerts" option (upper-left of page). The next page will offer you a list of all journals, with access to each subject collection, where you can click next to any title to set up e-mail delivery.
To set up RSS delivery, you need not register. Instead, go to any individual title's page and copy the URL into your own RSS reader (Bloglines, for example).
If you have questions about the above, please let me know.
