Find Full Text

It can be frustrating to identify a good resource only to run into a paywall to access. Here are some resources that can help you find or get access to full text:

Full Text Finder (A-to-Z Journals Locator) This link opens in a new window
Look up journal titles to see if they are available full text in any Newman's library databases and link directly to that journal title content.

Interlibrary Loan
When there is neither open access nor full text in Dugan Library's databases, there are still options to get access. Submit an interlibrary loan request to have the library borrow a copy of a book, article, or movie from another library that has it.
Open Access Helper
Open Access Helper is a free browser extension and iOS app that helps you find access to legal, free full-text of articles on the web.
Open Access Helper simplifies the process of finding out whether an open access (legally free) copy of a paywalled article exists on the web or, if not, whether Dugan Library has full-text access to the article.
