This LibGuide provides information and links to materials appropriate for students enrolled in SOCI 30306: Social Stratification at Savannah State University.

I have a citation for my article, what do I do next?

1. Identify the title of the journal or periodical in the citation. The journal title is usually italicized.

2. Check for full-text holdings in electronic format using the GALILEO A-Z list.

  • Type in the TITLE of the journal or periodical from the citation into the search box.
  • Select the link to the appropriate Journal or Periodical title.
  • A pop-up box will appear identifying Full-Text options. Select a database from this list.
  • Match the issue date and volume number to the citation.  

3. If you cannot find a journal title in the GALILEO A-Z list, check for holdings using the (subscribed) Journal List from our homepage. This allows you to search for subscribed journals and periodicals that may be available in-print.

Still Cannot find?
Materials that are not owned by the library may be requested through the Interlibrary Loan Department for patrons’ use. Ask a librarian if you need any assistance finding materials.

Scholarly v. Non-Scholary

Scholarly (peer-reviewed) resources undergo review by experts in a field of study, who determine that the articles are objective and credible before they are published. Examples of peer-reviewed resources include articles in scientific journals, encyclopedias, and textbooks

Non-scholarly resources
are published without review by experts. Non-scholarly resources range from a variety of types, such as websites and magazines, to newspapers, and books.

* If you plan to use non-scholarly materials, ask your instructor beforehand, and use the CRAAP Test to guide your judgment in using these resources.
