Accessing Full-Text Articles Online
It can be challenging enough to find the journal articles that you need, but then accessing the full text of the article can also be difficult. Library Services pays for several subscriptions to give you access to many articles. This session will help you access them. The session will also help you get the full text of articles to which Library Services doesn’t provide access.
Learning objectives:
- Navigate the different ways to access full text on PubMed, CINAHL (plus other EBSCO databases), and Embase.
- Use Library Services' Document Delivery service to get full text of articles to which Library Services doesn’t provide access.
Recommended for: Nova Scotia Health staff, clinicians and/or researchers new to Library Services or who would like to review how to find full text of articles.
