Citation Linker
When you have a citation (or a partial citation) to a journal article, try this tool. If the Libraries subscribe to the full text of that article online, you'll be linked to it. If we don't, you'll be given other options for acquiring it.
- Citation Linker
Be sure to include as much information as possible to get to the link, although the author and title don't seem as important as the rest of the citation.
