The previous poster is right that the best source for free access will be through whatever local libraries (national, public, and/or college) you have in your area. Many these days offer online access to journal article databases you can search as a member.



Other than that, I like a service called the Directory of Open Access Journals which puts together links to free online journals:

If by "library journals" you mean those for those studying library science, they have a list of those at:

Also, there is a simple search which lets you search the text of the journals as well for topics:

There are a few other similar sites as well. Here's a good article reviewing them:

Hopefully those will help you out. This is quite a controversial topic in academia these days (the desire of scholars to publish their works openly vs. the publishers who want to make money from the content/peer review process.) The end result being it's still a challenge to easily access free online journal articles if you aren't affiliated with a good library.
