Do you need to find a journal article in 
anthropology?
In this tutorial, we'll learn how to use the 
library databases to support your study at 
Rollins.
On the Olin Library home page, please click 
on "find resources by subject"
and select "Anthropology".
Anthropology subject guide, select 
"AnthroSouce" on the top corner
AnthroSource is a comprehensive collection 
of over one hundred years of anthropology 
study,
including online, full-text access to a quarter-
million articles published in 33 journals
by the American Anthropology Association.
Let's say we want to do research on
marriage
and kinship
We want to limit all research to "Africa"
In AnthroSource, you don't need to
type in capital words; it's not case-sensitive
and you don't need to type in "and", "the"  
(those are called "stop words")
Now we have the full records
so let's take a look at the last one
"A Study of East African Kinship and 
Marriage"...
Let's click on "HTML Version and More 
Information"
This shows you the summary of the article
Note that there's an abstract
And "References" is another way to 
find additional resources on this topic
if there's a very good article, so take a look at 
this too.
And "Cited By"
will give you some ideas of the impact of this 
article
whether this research has been used and 
quoted by others.
Click on "How to Cite" button
this gives you an idea how to cite this 
resource in your research paper.
If you need to access the full-text of the article, 
click on the "Get PDF" button
And that gives you access to the full-text 
article
Note the typical format of a research article
This is a peer-reviewed article
gives you the summary of the article
followed by a literature review
and the research presentation,
data discussion
and conclusions
the last section is the "references" section
Now let's go back to AnthroSource, two other 
useful tools
you may want to take a look
let's click on "Home"
If you want to know what is going on in your 
subject areas,
you might want to "Browse Journals"
click on "Cultural Anthropology"
you're going to see what is the most recent 
issue,
what is the research that has been done in 
these areas
Another useful tool is
what is called "Virtual Issues"
AnthroSource groups different articles on a 
single topic
into "Virtual Issues", such as "Islam"
it depends on your subject area; this could 
become very handy.
Just remember, when you conduct research 
in Anthropology, 
you need to take advantage of AnthroSource.
