JSIS 483/HSTAS 490 - Winter 2018: Find Articles

The Southeast Asia Collection includes hundreds of journal titles published in Southeast Asia in the languages of the region, but relatively few of these are available online or even indexed.  An increasing number of scholarly journals published by universities in the region are now available Open Access, although they are still not indexed in the major commercial databases. They are likely to be found through Google Scholar, and some are listed in the Southeast Asia Studies Research Guide. 

Many scholarly journals in English do include extensive international coverage, and these can be found using the standard databases of citations and full text articles. Use the list of databases on this page to find citations and full text articles in English.
