Subject Guides: Undergraduate Nursing Resources: Find Full-Text

Where's the Full Text?

Can't find the full text of an article?

Search the SPU catalog by journal title (e.g. JAMA) to see if we have access to the journal in print, in a database, or on microfilm. View Online tab to see which database the journal is in, or the Get It tab to see what dates we have available in hard copy.

Try the journal's website or Google Scholar. Sometimes articles are available free online. Other quick options are Unpaywall and Open Access Button.

If you need immediate access, visit another library in Seattle where you can access the journal. Check their catalog first to verify access.

If you still can't find it, use Interlibrary Loan to request the article be sent from another library. (few days to a week)

Google Scholar Button

The Google Scholar button is a browser button you can install for easy access to Google Scholar from any web page. It can be used to find full text content available free on the web or from the SPU Library collection without leaving your current page.

To install Google Scholar Chrome extensions, go to Google Scholar, click on the hamberger icon (1) and select settings (2) and click the button (3) link.
