Finding Articles
Full-Text vs. Citation Only Resources
Listed below are resources containing full-text articles, book chapters, reviews, or other items, as well as resources indexing or listing only citations to articles, book chapters, reviews or other items, with no full-text. The latter requires that you copy the citation and search the UA Library Catalog to determine if we own the cited journal issue or monograph and retrieve the call number and location in order to find the item in the collection. If we do not own the cited item, you may request the item through InterLibrary Loan. This service is free for University-affiliated customers.
