The Readers' Guide to Periodical Literature is an index to articles published in magazines and periodicals. The OKL has the RGPL from 1890 to April 2003.
In the above example, "MALCOLM X" is the subject entry. The 2nd article can be found in The Nation, volume 201, pages 336-8 in the November 8, 1965 issue. The OKL has print copies of most of the periodicals indexed in the Reader's Guide.
