Highlights

  • Link directly to full text articles available through the Library's databases.
    Look for Full-text@UNF Library. This takes you to the Article Linker menu.
  • The Article Linker menu presents a list of options for finding the item. You may be able to link directly to the full text.
  • If full text is not available, one click searches the UNF library catalog to see if the journal is available in print.
  • If the item is not available either electronically or in print, order it through Interlibrary Loan.
  • Check to see if the journal is scholarly or refereed/peer-reviewed.
  • If the item is a book, you will see a "Library search" link. This searches WorldCat. There is a link from WorldCat that searches the UNF Library catalog.
  • Here is more information from Google Scholar.

How it Works

  • If you are on campus, Google Scholar recognizes you by Internet address but you must still set Google Scholar preferences to University of North Florida. You will be able to link directly to many full text articles with no log-in required.
  • If you are off campus, you must set your Google Scholar preferences to University of North Florida.
    >>Select "Scholar Preferences" from the link at the right of the search box, find University of North Florida and save it as your preference.
  • When you link to a full text article from off campus you will be presented with a log-in screen. Log in with your UNF N # and UNF password.

Why Library Databases are More Complete

  • Things you can do with library databases that you can't do with Google Scholar.
    • Find full text instantly back to the early 1990s -- and some earlier - all free!
    • Limit by journal type -- academic/scholarly, peer-reviewed, trade journals, etc.
    • Limit by document type -- book review, article, research, etc.
    • Search in subject databases to limit to specific types of journals, such as psychology journals, education journals, or biology journals.
    • Search very specifically using descriptors and subject headings not available in Google Scholar.
    • And lots more!
