The publications listed below are all peer reviewed journals. Some focus exclusively on criminal justice and criminology while others are broader in scope but include articles on those subjects. They are grouped by topic. Articles in them are acceptable for assignments where you are required to use articles from such publications. The list is not exhaustive, which means that you may well find articles in other journals that would be acceptable. If you find an article in a journal that is not listed below, check with me to be sure it comes from a peer reviewed journal.
Many of the journals are available through the Rutgers library system, either on-line or in print at Robeson, Camden Law School Library or one of the other RU libraries. If it is not available through Rutgers, you can request it through inter-library loan, but you should order well in advance of the date you need it because it can take a week or so for the library to receive an article from another library. Before you order something through interlibrary loan, you should check the catalogue of the Camden Law Library. They have several CJ-related journals, but their catalogue is not included in IRIS. Ask a librarian for assistance in getting to the Law School’s on-line catalogue if you do not know how to do that.
In the event that the article you want is available through another RU library (i.e. not Robeson or Camden Law), you can request a copy of it online:
- First locate the title of the article you want by searching through an index such as Criminal Justice Abstracts or Academic Search Premier. Note the title, author(s), volume and number of the journal, page numbers and date.
- Go to IRIS and enter the name of the journal. If the volume of the journal you need is not available in Camden but is available in print at another RU library (and is not available on-line), click on “Article Delivery.” After logging in on the window that opens, click on “Article Request” on the left-hand side of the screen. Fill in the form that pops up and you should receive a copy of the article within a few days.
