Getting Articles' Full Text

Plan A:

In MOST of our databases, you will either see an option for the PDF, which makes your life very easy, or Get Full Text. However, you may also see a couple icons. The first icons most likely will be the publisher, they want your money. ALWAYS click on the Find It! or hover over the Get Full Text to see that is says Ohio University. 

Plan B:

Download Libkey Nomad as a browser extension to get quicker access to full-text Ohio University Libraries' pay to have access to, no matter where you are! FAQ linked on how to download. 

Plan C: 

Easier access to the full text of journal articles via Google Scholar by connecting OHio University Libraries to your library settings link. Directions in video below. 

Plan D: 

Double check the Library Catalog for the journal title and select the OHIO Library Catalog to see only our offerings. Limit your search by Material Type: Journals. You can then see if we have an electronic access option and then find your article by year.

Plan E:

If all else fails, you can order the article via interlibrary loan (FOR FREE!) or check with Hanna, your librarian. If you have never used Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad) you will find directions and tutorials here.
