The full text of many articles is available through our databases. If the full text of a specific article doesn't seem to be linked directly from the database, here are your other options for getting the full text.
Use Check MSU Availability within a database. If the article is in a journal to which we subscribe, you will either be linked right to that article (electronic access) or be linked into the library catalog to get a call number so you can find the journal in the library (print access). If we don't subscribe to the journal, you will find a link to get in to interlibrary loan (the Request It! service) - make a request and we will get a copy from another library for you.
If you have a citation for which you are trying to find full text, use the Journals by Title list to look for the journal by title. The JournaList is a list of all our periodical holdings, both electronic and print. If we subscribe, the Journals by Title list is a quick way to find that out. If we do have the journal, you will be linked to electronic access or to the catalog to get a call number. The Journal by Title list can be found on the library's home page in the FIND area.
If the library does not subscribe to a journal, you can request your article through interlibrary loan (Request It!) and we will get a copy for you from another library. You log in to your Request It! account (formerly ILLiad) using the same username and password you use for D2L (Net/ID and associated password). You can get to interlibrary loan from the library's home page in the REQUEST area.
