The Reader's Guide to Periodicals
The Card Catalog The Reader's Guide is an alphabetically-arranged index to magazine articles which you located by looking up either subjects or authors.  The subject approach is most commonly used.  All abbreviations used in the guide can be found in the front of the issue.  Check the list of holdings to make sure that the magazines are available in the MHS Library.  (Holdings lists are also available for the Blount County Library and the Maryville College Library.)
