Journal articles

This database contains details of some 400 good quality project management articles, selected from project management and other journals. The articles have been chosen for their quality in particular areas of project management and are not necessarily comprehensive. It should be noted that not all references come from journals that are entirely devoted to project management. Some come from quite early works which should assist the student who is searching for early references to particular topics
