About Full Text in PubMed

Links exist in PubMed to the full text of journals licensed by HSLIC.

To access full text: After a search, display the PubMed AbstractPlus, Abstract or Citation format.  Link icons will appear if HSLIC has purchased access to the full text.

PubMed  usually indicates a link to the full text of the article. ž If you don’t go directly to the article click on the Additional Resources Link (shows up at the top of the page, or you may go to the Article Linker page automatically). On that screen:

  1. Use the Article link
  2. Try the Cross Ref link (if present)
  3. Try the Journal link
  4. Try the Resources link

PubMed  indicates a link to the Library catalog for print holding information.

PMC  or PubMed PMC  indicate open access journals; the contents are freely accessible.

Elsevier, for example, is a publisher icon.  If the publisher icon is not accompanied by a UNM full text or print icon the link will take you to the publisher's site where you usually cannot access the full text of the article.  This is because HSLIC has not purchased a license for that journal.  The publisher will likely give you the option to purchase access to the item with a credit card.  HSLIC is not responsible for any purchases made via this method.

Things to Watch Out For

  • Watch out for articles that state they are E-Pub Ahead of Print or In Processing (try the publisher link and the Additional Resources page, but this article will probably be unavailable).
  • Supplements can be difficult to find. Sometimes our subscription will not cover them for a journal. If we have access to them, you will often have to track these manually, checking multiple providers, from the Additional Resources page.
  • Some items don’t index or link well, such as things we can only get exclusively through a particular database (i.e. MD Consult Clinics). For these you may have to go into the individual database and use its search tool to find the item.
