Finding References

• Finding references is a task that ranges in difficulty from almost automatic to impossible.
• I find that I often spend a lot of time looking for references.
• I do note, that I spend a lot more time reading than looking for references. After all, that's the point of finding a reference.
• The standard place to look is to google (or use some other search engine).
• You can also go to the library.
• You can also go straight to the journal. Almost all journals are available electonically. (Of course they're generally not free).
• Middlesex has access to a lot of journals online.
• You can also order articles (and borrow books) via the library from the British Library (though there is a cost).
• For that matter, you could actually go to the British Library, though you need a readers card.
• Another reasonable place to find people's papers is on their web sites.
