What is "Find it! @ Library - UT Southwestern"?

"Find it! @ Library - UT Southwestern" is a way for you to access or receive articles directly from the databases you search. This saves time by either linking directly to the full text of an article, or providing other options for obtaining it.

When you search selected Library resources for journal articles, you will see the
"Find it! @ Library - UT Southwestern" icon (below) next to every citation.

Due to space constraints, you may see an abbreviated "Find it! @ Library" icon (below) instead.

These icons are linked to our Find it! service, which provides you with these options:

• The full text of the article, if available
• Search Electronic Journals list
• Search Library Catalog
• Interlibrary Loan request form for the article (requires registration)

Whenever possible, the system will link you directly to the full-text article.

If the system is unable to link to the full text, the Find it! page will appear, providing multiple options.

Why is electronic full text not always available?

If Find it! does not provide a link to the full text, it may be because:

• The Library does not subscribe to that journal
• The article is older than 1995 and the publisher does not have it online
• The journal has not been activated in the service
• The citation contains incorrect or incomplete information

Take advantage of the other links provided on the Find it! page, including:

• Search Electronic Journals list, especially for newer articles
• Search Library Catalog, especially for older articles
• Request through Interlibrary Loan if the Library does not own the item

Please notify us of problems with links by selecting the "Report Broken Link" button.
