Try out the UMD Libraries reload button! Add the button to your browser's bookmark toolbar (see instructions below), and whenever you come across a journal you think you should be able to access, click the button to reload the page through the UMD Libraries proxy.
Firefox:
Drag the button to the bookmarks toolbar or right click and select the "Bookmark This Link" option.
Chrome or Safari:
Drag the button to the bookmarks toolbar. If the bookmarks toolbar isn't visible, press Ctrl + Shift + B (in Chrome).
Internet Explorer:
Right click the button and choose the "Add to favorites..." option. You may get a warning about adding unsafe links. While it's good practice to be wary, we believe this link is safe.
*Note: Reloading the page through the proxy still won't give you access if it's a resource we don't subscribe to. To verify access, look up the journal in journal finder.
Below you'll find a list of the most relevant journals in the fields relating to Language, Writing, and Rhetoric. These are either open source or available to you through the UMD Libraries. For in-depth information about each of these journals (and more), visit the MLA Directory of Periodicals. Search for a journal and this database will give you the scope, editorial staff, acceptance rates, and details pertaining to submissions.
