Search Article through UUM library Subscribed Database

Let us try to find articles…Huhuhu…

I found that nowadays many students keep on asking, way to find scholarly journal for their assignment. In the meantime, students also required by lecturers to cite scholarly articles from reputable journals in their project paper.

Some students react as shown below!!!!!!

But! Big question mark, have we tried our nearest and easiest platform to find multi-million number and dollar articles….. As one proverb, “Actions speak louder than words”……Now, let us try!!!!

REMEMBER, to find article in UUM Library, you must be an active student of UUM to login into this page!!!!!

FIRST, type this web address in your web browser address…. http://lib.uum.edu.my.

NEXT, click eResources and insert your username and your password.

Once you successfully login, your page will be displayed as shown below.

Make sure, you successfully login to this site. Eventhough, there are so many databases listed in your left menu, only few databases relevant to business/management or social science students.

For instance, JStor:Arts & Sciences, Proquest Direct, Emerald Management Plus, SciVerse (ScienceDirect & Scopus) and EBSCOhost. However, remaining databases can be used to find journals. There is no ANY RESTRICTION!!!!!

Let us try to find journal by clicking any of the listed database link. Let us click, Emerald Management Plus.

Once you click, it will appear as shown below.

Now, you have to click “ Search Emerald Fulltext” image.

Once clicked by you, it will appear as shown below…..
