Human Resource Management: Journals & journal articles

A journal is a regular publication that deals with a particular subject, and contains journal articles written by experts in that subject.

Journals articles are a great research resource:

• they cover more specific topics
• go into more detail than textbooks
• usually are more up to date
• many are peer reviewed to ensure reliability

You should use journal articles to do research for your assignments.  The library has a wide range of journals with the majority available online as e-journals.
