Proquest - Publications tab
I found that you needed to type in very general topics - Education, Agriculture etc in order for some publications to come up. Librarian, farmer etc. showed 0 publications and the word teacher brought up 1 article. Then I changed the right hand drop down to either - in title, title begins with, summary, or in subject and found the same result. Maybe I'm not using this site correctly.

Hi, dell rap, I hope you will try this again. Remember that when you are searching the publications tab, you are searching words in journal titles. Try "library" or "libraries," for example and you will get (among others) "Library Journal" and "American Libraries." This is also a place to go when a patron remembers reading an article in, say, "Golf World," from a few years back--you can search within that title and find the article. It's also a way to read hard-to-get journals cover to cover. I encourage you to try again and post your findings. Thanks for trying.
