The library just gained access to this new database, Social Work Abstracts. You’ll note the word “abstract” in the title. This is not a database that has full-text access to the articles you will find, but it reviews over 500 U.S. and international journals and publishes approximately 900 abstracts each quarter. You can search Social Work Abstracts going back all the way to 1960.
If you find an article in Social Work Abstracts that you would like to view in its entirety, you can search for the title of the journal in the SAU journal list to see if we have full-text access to the journal in another database or a print copy. If you find that we do not have access to that journal, you can request a copy from our Inter-Library Loan department and we will try to get the article for you from another library.
