Step 3: To search for journals in BrowZine either type a journal title, subject, or ISSN into the search box OR click on one of the subject areas under the search box. Due to the limitations of the search box users often find drilling down using the subject area categories to be more productive.

For this example, we will search for education journals, select Social Science and Behavioral Science from under Browse Subjects.
