It is important to check the online library catalogue and the electronic journals to ensure that the required item is not held at the University of Johannesburg Library Service.
Electronic journal titles subscribed to by the Library Service are accessible via the library catalogue and by means of an E-journal title A-Z list that is available on the library database list.
