African Gender Studies Journals
Journals are published every few weeks or months. They are academic magazines that contain articles on different topics. Journals are important for finding very up-to-date information, or very specific information on narrow topics. The great thing about journals nowadays is that so many of them are available electronically as well as in print.
Printed Journals
The latest unbound journals are kept on Level 5. The bound copies since 1965 are kept in the basement. Pre-1965 journals are kept in an off-campus store and can be requested from the Loans Desk. Use Primo to search for printed journals.
Electronic Journals
Electronic journals are full text journals to which UCT subscribes. They are useful because they are always available and because they can be searched by subject. Use the Journals link to search for journals online.
Databases for your subject include:
- AfricaWide
- EconLit
