What If There's No Link to Full Text?

When the library does not have access to the full text, you will see an option to request the item. You will need to put in a request for an interlibrary loan to get the article. See last box at the bottom of this page for more information on Interlibrary lending. 

 

Interlibrary Loan

There is no charge for interlibrary loans, and there is no limit on the number of requests you can submit.

NOTE: Allow about two weeks to receive an interlibrary loan.  Many times, items can come in more quickly than two weeks, but you should allow two weeks just to be safe.
