Most Russian and East European journals and newspapers are not shelved in the Serials Department reading room. They are located in the main stacks of Davis Library (and occasionally in Wilson Annex or one of the other libraries on campus), or are accessible in electronic format (see below). Please use the UNC-Chapel Hill Libraries Catalog to verify locations and holdings information.

The term electronic resource will retrieve some titles (including books in NetLibrary), but many online journals and newspapers are not found in the Catalog but through the Article Databases & More. For Russian electronic titles, use the following databases:
