When you are researching your topic in most of the Library research databases,
if full text is not available through a given database, you may see the see the button.
Click on it and you will be provided with a menu of links to other databases
that contain the article you need. If the journal is not available in any of
our research databases, the menu will instead provide you with links to our Interlibrary
Loan (ILL) service and to The Library Catalog.
Most of the electronic journals that are available through the SJU Library
are up and running in the Find it! @ SJU service.
Many journals, however, are only available in print format in the Library--remember
to check The Library Catalog to locate those journals.
Interlibrary Loan forms with pre-populated citation information.
Not every service will appear when you click the Find it!
@ SJU button - .
It depends on the database that you are searching and the information that
is available for the specific citation.
Who may use Find it! @ SJU?
All students, faculty, and staff who are currently registered at Saint
Joseph's may use Find it! @ SJU from on-campus or
off-campus.
When I click on the Find it! @ SJU button
I get an error?
The Find it! @ SJU technology
requires that new browser windows be opened. If you have 'pop-up
blocker' software installed or subscribe to a 'pop-up blocker'
service you will not be able enjoy the benefits of Find
it! @ SJU. Temporarily disable your software/service or
add the site to your blocker software's list of allowed sites.
Be sure you have cookies fully enabled in your browser software.
Why don't I see any Find it! @
SJU buttons?
There are several possible reasons:
the database may not work with Find it! @ SJU
the citation you found may not have enough metadata available to
link withFind
it! @ SJU
the Find it! @ SJU link may be shown at a "deeper" level
in the database. Find it! @ SJU links will appear in
different places depending on the database that you are using.
Why didn't I get a link to the full text of
my article in the Find it! @ SJU menu window?
If there is no link to full text, check The Library Catalog
to see if the Library owns a copy in a different format.
Why is there sometimes more than one option
for full text in the Find it! @ SJU menu window?
Our e-Resources and our Electronic Journal collections have
some overlap in coverage. We have worked to simplify your choices in
the menu window. However, you will sometimes see more than one option
for full text listed in the Find it! @ SJU menu
window.
Why are there multiple windows produced?
When you click on the Find it! @ SJU button, a menu
window is generated listing the links to try that will lead you to the
full text of the article. Each of these links will open an additional window.
I clicked on Link to full text, but I only got to the journal's home page.
Why?
Find it! @ SJU brought you as close to the article as
it could but the publisher or provider prevented it from going to the specific
article. Without closing your open browser windows, use alt-tab to toggle
between the open windows to first review your citation and then to search
within the displayed journal list until you see the issue that you need.
10. Although the Find it! @ SJU menu tells me that my article is in full text, when I follow through it really is not available. How can I submit an Interlibrary Loan request (ILL)?
*Problems requesting ILL with Article Finder or Find it! @ SJU ?
