Transcript Slide 1

This walkthrough demonstrates
how to find an article when
you have some of the citation
information, but the Phillips
Library does not have access to
the full text of the article
through the online databases.
For example, I have the following citation for an
article:
Konok, V., Dóka, A., & Miklósi, Á. (2011). The
behavior of the domestic dog (Canis familiaris)
during separation from and reunion with the
owner: A questionnaire and an experimental
study. Applied Animal Behaviour Science,
135(4), 300-308.
• From the library homepage, select
“Databases.”
Try searching in the EBSCO databases to see if you
can find the article listed.
Select Academic Search Complete or any database
that has (EBSCO) next to its name. You can also
search in ProQuest databases if appropriate to your
topic. If you are off campus, you will be required to
login with your moodle/AU email login.
On the EBSCO home page, click on “Advanced
Search”
Enter the title of the article, or the
beginning of the article title in the first
box, then in box on the right side, select
“TI title” from the drop-down menu.
Look through the result(s) for
your article. Click on the
“Find It” button in the entry
for your article.
Click on the “Full text unavailable. Borrow from
another library?” Link
A new window should open
with this request form filled
out except for the last 4
boxes. Enter your information
into those boxes and Click
“Send Request.”
The full text of the article
will be delivered to the
email address you enter
into this form in about a
week.
If you can't find the article listed anywhere, like
EBSCO or ProQuest (so as to get to the blue
Find It button), then you should send an email
to [email protected] with a request to
interlibrary loan the article and as much
information as you have about the article.
Thanks for using the One-Minute
Mentor tutorial series!
