| "Here's how to access the Futurist in
electronic form:
1. Go to the library home page: http://www.aacc.edu/library/ 2. From the navigation bar on the left, select Library Databases and click on it. If you are off campus, you will be prompted to enter a login number. This is the 13-digit number found underneath the bar code on the back of your AACC Truxal Library card. If you are on a campus computer, you will not need to do that step. 3. You will now see a page titled Truxal Library - Databases. The first category in the list is General databases. Find Expanded Academic in that category and click on it. 4. You will see a screen with the word Infotrac in the top left corner, and a yellow dialog box on the center of the page. To search for a specific journal (Futurist), choose Journal Search from the blue navigation bar on the left side of the screen and click on it. 5. Type the journal title (Futurist) in the dialog box and click search. 6. You will see a link to Futurist. Under it is information about the publication. Notice that the database contains full-text coverage of this title from Jan 1, 1989 to the present. 7. Click on the link for Futurist. You will see a page with links to issues from the current year and with links to previous years. If you are interested in browsing, you can do so here. If you know of a specific author or article title, you can search that by selecting Back to Search on the blue navigation bar and choosing the subject, keyword, or advanced search options. 8. If you have any problem accessing the database, call the reference
desk at 2456; email the reference desk at refdesk@aacc.edu
