2. Click the Publications tab at the top of the page. You will see an
alphabetical list of the periodicals indexed in Proquest and the years included.
Notice that this list is "Full text only." Do a search for a journal in your
profession by typing a title or keyword in the search box. Report your findings
and observations.
When I put assistant librarian or library assistant in the keyword search I came up with nothing.
When I put libriaian in the search I still come up with very little. Two results one was a librarian BLOG the other "Teacher Librarian" while this periodical had a lot of articles to choose from most were more related to teachers and school librarians than to a public librarian.
When I simply put library in the keyword search I found what I was looking for many differant publications for librarians of all kinds.
This shows that it is important to be as spacific as possible with your searches to return the most useful information out there.
Excellent discoveries here--the Publications tab works best when one looks for a word in the title of the journal--"library" is a great one (26 publications). The subject/publication summary search options aren't as useful at this time.
