Print Journals (previously housed in Barker)
Bound Barker journals have now been moved to the Library Storage Annex. Your options:
- Many of our journals are available online - check Vera (http://libraries.mit.edu/vera) and Barton (http://libraries.mit.edu/barton) for URLs for the journals.
- It is possible to request articles in PDF format from storage by using the request service in Barton (http://libraries.mit.edu/lsa/pdf-delivery.html). When you find the journal’s record, click on “All items”, find the volume you want, and click on the “Request PDF” button.
- If you want to look at a whole volume instead of a single article, on the same Barton page you can instead click on the “Request item” button and the volume will be delivered to the library of your choice.
- If you prefer to physically browse one or more volumes, you can also visit the Library Storage Annex by calling to let them know of your visit (617-253-7040). They are open Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm and are located in building N57 on State Street, a short walk up Massachusetts Ave.
- Unbound print journals in Barker collection (usually the latest year of a subscription) will remain in Barker, but will move to the fifth floor.
