Additional Resources for locating Accounting Articles
Accounting Research Network
This searchable site allows researchers to locate research articles before they appear in publication. Users can search in the title field or in the title, abstract and keywords field. The majority of these articles are free to download but those appearing in fee-based partner publication will be required to pay a fee to access. (Before paying for an article, be sure to check MSU’s JournaList to see if we already subscribe to the journal).
Google Scholar
Google scholar searches only a small portion of the world wide web to bring back only scholarly articles. It will also search some of the harder to find documents that do not appear in commercial databases such as technical reports and book chapters. This should be used in conjunction with, no in lieu of, MSU’s databases as Google Scholar lacks the currency and comprehensiveness of these databases.
