Finding Specific Articles

How do I get the article?

If the full-text of an article is not available in our databases, you will see this button next to the reference:



Click on the button to see options to get the article:
  • Online (if available)
  • In print (links to GIL, the library catalog)
  • Via interlibrary loan (using ILLiad system)

Use interlibrary loan to request journal articles that are not available in the library's print or online collection. Please note that

  • The average turnaround time for articles is 2-3 days but can be longer for certain titles.
  • Notifications will be sent to the email account used to register for ILLiad.
  • Articles must be downloaded from your ILLiad account within 30 days.
If you are a new user, please create an ILLiad account. You can set up your ILLiad account to use your UWG ID username and password, if you prefer.

How do I find more articles?

Many of your articles will come from the References section of the articles you've already selected. To see references for an article displayed in your search results, select "References" or "See related reference work articles."

If you've already printed or photocopied an article, enter the journal title of the relevant reference(s) into the Journals tab of the homepage. If the library does not have online or print access to the journal, you will see a link to request the article via Interlibrary Loan.
