Popular magazines (sometimes called consumer magazines) are those directed to general audiences. If the library owns a magazine, it may be found in print/microfilm format by doing a Periodical Title Search in the ALICE catalog. You will also be able to determine through ALICE whether or not we have that magazine title indexed in an online database, and many times the full-text articles from that magazine are available as well!

The following databases are good sources for finding articles from popular magazines.
