Searching Library resources
Searching for full-text journal articles
Try these strategies for locating full-text journal articles (a tutorial is available):
When
available, download full-text articles from database search results
such as Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, and Ovid CINAHL.
With citation information, search ePublications, the finding aid to most of the Library’s electronic journal collection containing thousands of in-scope journal titles.
If
the library does not hold a journal article or book title
electronically or in print, McGILL is the Greenblatt Library’s
document delivery service; fill out an ILL
Requesting Form to have the Greenblatt Library obtain an article from another
library for a nominal fee.
Search
the GIL
Universal Catalog to locate journal holdings from nearby University System of Georgia
libraries for personal on-site visit and self-service photocopying.
GIL@MCG and the Universal Catalog
Search GIL@MCG,
the Library’s online catalog to find journal articles and books in the Greenblatt Library’s
print collections.
If
a book is not available in the Greenblatt Library, follow the GIL
Universal Catalog link in GIL@MCG to search for a circulating book from another
University System of Georgia library; that book may be borrowed
through the Express service, by walk-up (in-person borrowing) or remotely (online through the
Universal Catalog).
