This page will walk you through how to get full text of articles you find. Sometimes the library doesn't have access to an article. In that case use Interlibrary Loan and we'll order a copy for you.
Once you have completed your search and want to read the article, there are 4 ways to get access:
Type | Description | Image |
Use the HSCLink | Every citation has the HSCLink embedded in it. This is your first option. Always check the HSCLink first. | |
Use the eJournal Locator | If the HSCLink doesn't work, navigate to the library's homepage and check for the journal by title. | |
Find a free copy | Use Google Scholar to look for a freely available copy. Be sure to check the version. | |
Use ILL | If the full text article is not available by any of the methods above, you can ask the library to get a copy for you using the interlibrary loan (ILL) service. This is free for students! |
If HSCLink doesn't bring up the full text you have a few other options.
If the library doesn't have access to the article you can request it through Interlibrary Loan (ILL) and we will order it for you and send you a digital copy.
In most instances there is no fee for this service.
