Using Other Sawyer Library Databases to Search for Cited References
Some of our library databases, including our publisher aggregate files of scholarly journals, provide the ability to search within article references. Here is an example from Sage, followed by a few other options in other databases. Be flexible and explore!

Here's an example of this wider search in Oxford Journals Online:
