Leadership Resources

The Manuel Library has many resources to offer our students in the John Wesley School of Leadership. This guide highlights some of the journals and databases that may be useful for research in the field of leadership.

Reference Books

Reference books like dictionaries and encyclopedias play an important role in defining what’s important in a field. Here are a couple of great places to start when researching various topics in the field of leadership: 

 

Library Subscriptions

This list includes links to some of the leadership journals the library subscribes to. Note that this list is only a small sample of the many relevant journals available through the library’s database.

The Manuel Library has access to many high quality journals in the field of leadership. These journals are accessible through our Discovery service as part of one or more of the databases the library subscribes to. Other journals are single subscriptions held by the library. 

The list that follows includes links to view each of the journals listed. From the journal page, you can browse specific journal volumes or search the entire publication. The dates next to the titles are the years for which full-text access is available through Manuel Library. All the journals are indexed to the present, however, so you will be able to find articles that do not include full-text access. In those cases, you can request the article through Interlibrary Loan and receive it through email. 

Open Access Journals

Open Access journals are freely available online and can be an excellent place to find journal articles. The following list includes links to some of the top Open Access journals in the field of leadership:

However, more refined searches can be conducted by selecting specific databases within Discovery. Here are some links to specific databases where high quality leadership resources might be found:
