Library Search Help: Articles via Research Discovery

To find full-text articles through one of our E-Journals, navigate to the JOURNAL SEARCH option within Research Discovery.

Follow the steps below complete your search and find the full-text article:

1. Search for a Journal or Browse a List of Journals
Type one or more words from the journal title, or the ISSN, in the box and click the magnifying glass.

To browse a list, type the first few letters of the journal name and click the magnifying glass.

2. Select a Journal
Browse your search results in order to locate the appropriate title. Click the link to the source you wish to access.

3. Access the Journal

On the journal's record, check for full-text options under "View Online." A journal may be in more than one full-text collection. For example, JAMA is in two collections that have different dates of coverage. Click the link to the source you wish to access, keeping in mind the date(s) that you are interested in.

4. Drill Down to an Article

After you select a source for the journal, “drill down” to the volume and issue, and then the article. Each publisher or source has a different interface and “path” to full text. This is one example, where JAMA offers the option to view past issues.

5. Select the format: PDF or HTML
On some sites, you may need to find and click a PDF button to open the PDF version of the article.
