Getting to the Full-Text Article when You Have a Citation : A Step-by-Step Tutorial with Screenshots

Part 1 - Using PubMed Citation Matcher

There are several ways to get to the full-text when you have a citation in hand, as from a reference list. This method uses the PubMed Citation Matcher and taps into our Affinity full-text.

Affinity Library Services has access to nearly 12,000 full-text journals that are not otherwise available for free on the internet. We subscribe to some of these, and take advantage of other full-text options available to us, like Badgerlink.

These are the secrets only your Librarians will tell you!
