How to obtain the Full-text of Articles

Article Linker

Example: You have performed a search in the database Art Full Text and you located an article that appeared in the journal Art History. You only received the citation and you need to the full-text of the article.

To see if the full-text is available, click the link for Article Linker

A new window will appear listing if the article is available in other databases or in print form. Please note that the Pepperdine Libraries will not have access to the full-text of all of the articles in the databases.

Click the link for Journal

Select Volume 20, September 1997.

Journal Search

Journal Search is another option for locating the full-text of articles. The Journal Search will indicate if the journal you are looking for is available in either in another database or in print form.

View the information in the Source field- Art History v.20 (September 1997) p. 350-374. This information will help you locate the entire article.

When you search Journal Search, use the name of the journal, NOT the not the title of the article.

Open a second browser window (so you won't lose your place in the database you are searching), go the library home page and click Journal Search.

Type Art history into the search box. It is important to search with the name of the Journal Title, not the name of the Article Title.

Click the link for Academic Search Elite.

Select Volume 20, September 1997.

The article you need is available in the full-text.
