Selected Journals in Christianity (Printed and Electronic)(Yale Divinity Library)
Yale University Library Electronic Journals Page
As a service to our readers, this Journals web site attempts to capture all the electronic journals to which the Yale Library provides access. Such e-journals comprise two general categories of approximately equal size: (1) Yale subscribes to them via a license that permits the University's authorized users (students, faculty, staff) to use them for educational and scholarly/research purposes; or (2)Yale, via numerous subject selectors' choices, provides direct links to them, because the titles are currently available without charge and without restriction via the Internet.
