1. Begin your search at the basic search box. Type in your search term and click on the search button.
3. Use the refine my results function in the lefthand toolbar to limit your search to articles.
4. If the record displays full text available, click on the title to see an electronic copy of the article.
5. If the entry shows no full-text don't despair. Click on the purple Get It! button and this function will search our electronic journal subscriptions to see if we own an electronic copy of this article.
6. Once the Get It screen pops up, you may see a link to a electronic journal or a link to check for a print copy in the K-State Libraries Catalog. We'll try to get it for you. This is an option to borrow, or have an article or chapter scanned and saved to PDF, from another library. Print articles will be delivered to one of our libraries and electronic articles to your interlibrary loan account.
Links open in a new tab.
