e-journals
Online scholarly publications
E-journals are scholarly periodicals published in electronic format, typically accessed online through academic databases or publisher websites.
The term distinguishes digital publications from traditional print journals: The library subscribes to thousands of e-journals.
Most academic research now appears first or exclusively as e-journals, making them central to scholarly communication.
