Journals not at MIT If you don't find a journal listed in Barton, there are a number of possibilities for obtaining a journal article. These are: 1. Check to see if another library in the Boston Library Consortium (BLC) owns the journal. See OWL Stock Answer for Boston Library Consortium under Libraries Outside MIT. 2. Make a request through our Interlibrary Borrowing office. See OWL Stock Answer under Interlibrary Borrowing. 3. Check with a Reference Librarian to see if the complete text of an article is available through an online service. 4. Check to see if a Harvard library owns the journal, and request a Letter of Introduction to the appropriate library. See OWL Stock Answer for Harvard Libraries under Libraries Outside MIT.
