 
This brief tutorial will demonstrate how to access the Wall Street Journal
using two databases. First, open an internet
browser and go to the PSU Libraries home page. Click the
"Databases" tab located in the central blue box. To access
the first database I'll be showing you, click on the letter "A". From this
list, click on "ABI/INFORM Complete". Once you click
this, a new page will open and then you will be directed to the 
ABI/INFORM Complete home page. To access the Wall Street Journal, 
click the "Publications" link located under the title heading. From the
alphabetical list, click "W", then click on the second result
called "Wall Street Journal, Eastern edition" to access it in its
entirety as it was published in print in the United States. If you're looking for the online
version, click "Wall Street Journal (Online)".
From this Publication Information page, you can either click "View most recent issue"
to browse, or you can type in your topic of research
in the Search box at the bottom of the page. Let's try a search. 
"College education". Notice, typing in a word or phrase
can yield thousands of results. Using quotation marks at the
beginning and end of your search phrase narrows search results to 
only results that include the phrase exactly as you typed it. 
Again, ABI/INFORM Complete is a great tool if you have a specific 
article or topic in mind; however, Factiva, 
the next database I'll show you, is a better resource to use when you don't
have a specific topic and you just want to browse. In a new window,
go to the PSU Libraries home page again. Click
the "Databases" tab and then select "F".
From the list, click "Factiva (Dow Jones)". Again,
a new page will open and you will be directed to the Factiva home page.
To browse the current issue's articles, click 
"View All" located under the Wall Street Journal heading. If you want to
browse past issues, click the "News Pages" tab located at the 
top of the page. From the top dropdown box, select 
"United States". From this page, you can browse past issues
dating back two weeks. If you want articles older than two weeks, you
will need to use ABI/INFORM Complete. You can also
search in Factiva. From the home 
page, type a word or phrase in the Search box.
then click "Options"
and select "The Wall Street Journal" in the Source dropdown box. 
For further assistance locating Wall Street Journal articles or any other
library resources, click the blue "Ask A Librarian" logo
found on the right-hand side of every page of the PSU Libraries web site.
Thanks and GOOD LUCK!
