Library 160: Finding, Evaluating, and Using Information

A common question from Library users is “Where are all the magazines and journals?” The Library does have a “Periodical Room," as shown in these pictures but it contains only some of the Library's periodicals.

In fact, the Periodical Room contains roughly 1/10 of all the magazines and journals that the Library receives, and just the latest year of those periodicals.

The Library's journals are not arranged by title, but by call number. In order to find the vast majority of periodicals at Parks Library you will need to know their call numbers. You will learn more about this later.
