Is there an easy way to find which electronic databases provide that journal?
I am doing legal research.

Why do you need a list of databases including the journal - why can't you just search for the journal in Scholar and go to whatever database it takes you to? Some context (i.e.. what your overall goal is) might help clarify this question.– ff524Sep 5, 2014 at 21:24

That particular journal doesn't seem to be in mainstream databases, so it's not indexed by Scholar. But generally, in Scholar, if you click on "All N versions", it will give you a list of links to the various sites it's available on.– ff524Sep 5, 2014 at 21:52

Thank you very much. I was using that site only for printed materials. I did not think about looking for electronic sources there. Useful information.– LukeSep 5, 2014 at 21:46
