TU Libraries now has access to Journalism Practice.

Journalism Practice is devoted to “the study and analysis of significant issues arising from journalism as a field of professional practice; relevant developments in journalism training and education, as well as the construction of a reflective curriculum for journalism; analysis of journalism practice across the distinctive but converging media platforms of magazines, newspapers, online, radio and television; and the provision of a public space for practice-led, scholarly contributions from journalists as well as academics.”  All contributions are refereed anonymously by acknowledged international experts in the field. 

The journal is also considered a companion to Journalism Studies, which we have access to via Communication & Mass Media Complete (2000 to 1 year ago).


Full-text articles published from 2007 to the present are currently available from this journal.
