The current issues are shelved face-out in alphabetical order by title. (NOTE: A few popular titles are kept on Reserve at the Circulation Desk.)      The most current issues are for library-use only.      The angled display shelf is a hatch. Lift upwards to see the older issues for the same magazine or journal. Older issues can be checked out of the Library.

    
 

	The number of older issues stored varies, depending on how often a title is published -- weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly. If you need an issue that is older than what you find, check with the reference librarian. Some titles may be contained in one of the library's online databases or on microfilm.
	NOTE: Most back issues, including bound volumes, are stored behind the Circulation Desk. Fill out a request for these issues at the Circulation Desk, providing magazine/journal title and date of the issue needed. Bound volumes must be used in the Library; the other back issues may be checked out for home use.
