 Hi this is Jessica Hagman with the Ohio University Libraries and in this video I'm going to show you how to find trade publications for media industry topics. Trade publications are usually magazines that are aimed at an audience of people in a particular profession. To find those trade publications for media industry topics I'm going to use the communication and mass media complete database. Starting from the library homepage I'm going to click on the databases tab and then do a search for communication. We want communication and mass media complete which is the second option. And then on the next page you should have a purple connect button to take you to the database. If you're off campus at this point you'd be asked to log in with your Ohio ID and password. The topic that I'm interested in is how Twitter has affected the way people watch television so I'm going to type in the word Twitter as my first word and television as my second and then click search. I came up with 93 articles which isn't too bad of a number but a lot of these are academic journal articles which are not what I want right now. So I'm going to scroll down and use the limiter on the left hand side to click on trade publications and limit my search to just those results. Now you'll see that I just have articles from trade publications like broadcasting and cable and advertising age. To see more information about an article you can click on the title so I'm going to click on this one about when did Twitter grow up and I see that this article is from advertising age from February 2013. I see the author and then I also see a link for the full text when this is how I actually read the article. Alright so here's the article about Twitter and how it's changed over time. If I wanted to save this article I could email it to myself using this option over here on the right hand side. I could also print it and create a citation although I'd want to check that for sure or use the permalink option to save the link to this page. The URL at the top of the page usually won't let you come back to this page. So that's been a very quick look at how you can find trade publications for media topics. If you have any questions be sure to contact me and let me know how I can help.
