How to Find Full Text Articles
1. Most article databases have direct or indirect links to full text articles:
PsycINFO --- Using the [Find It!] feature
MEDLINE --- Using the [PDF or Linked full text] or the [Article Linker] feature
2. University Libraries Home Page -- Journal tab -- Enter your journal title and select from any of the following 4 categories of journals
-- E-Journals only (most comprehensive search of online journals)
-- UC Catalog: print and online (limited online search)
-- Medical Journal
-- OhioLINK EJC (subset of E-Journals search above)
3. University Libraries Home Page -- Services & Information box -- Select "Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad) " (for west campus users)
In the majority of cases you will find your articles via either of the previous two methods. However, in those cases when you cannot find a copy of your article, the UC Interlibrary Loan service provides an easy and efficient alternative to bring the article you need on your desktop.
