Oxford University Press journals

Online access to complete catalog

Northwestern University Library has entered into an agreement with Oxford University Press to purchase online access to the entire catalog of Oxford University Press journals. One of the leading international publishers of academic and research journals, Oxford Journals partners with the world’s most prestigious learned societies to publish and develop journal titles in all subject areas.

The new agreement includes online access to all 184 Oxford University Press journals, establishing access to 67 titles never received before. Northwestern’s online access includes backfile coverage from 1996 to the present. Current subscriptions to the print version are not affected by the agreement.

The journals may be accessed by individual title via the Library’s online catalog, NUcat or via the Oxford University Press Journals web site. The Oxford web site includes an article-searching instrument, as well as browsable subject categories of: humanities, law, life sciences, mathematics & physical science, medicine, and social sciences.

If you have questions about specific titles in the catalog, contact the Library’s selector in that subject area . For help in accessing the titles, the reference desks at any of the libraries can provide immediate assistance.
