  1. How to find articles for Dr. Richard’s Corrections Course By Ben Amata

  2. First go to the database page

  3. Select criminal justice as a subject.

  4. Select a database. • I am selecting Criminal Justice Abstracts

  5. Note I have typed in my topic: Incarcerated mothers • Also, I have clicked on the box Articles Only

  6. I have retrieved the citations for 27 articles of which 22 are “peer reviewed.” • Peer reviewed means the articles were reviewed by experts in the field or an editorial staff in order to be accepted for publication.

  7. I will now scroll down the list to see which ones I want to find. • When I see something that is interesting, I will click on the title.

  8. I can read the abstract to get a better sense if I want to pursue. • In this case, this is a full text article so if I click on full text I will be able to read the article.

  9. If the full text is not there and usually they are not, I will click on the Findit . • Then it will take me to the article if the Library owns it electronically or it will tell me if it is in paper format.

  10. We only have this in paper on the 3 South

  11. You can always ask for assistance by going to the reference desk or calling it at 278-5673, if you are having problems finding articles.
