When using one of the library’s online databases, PubMed or Google Scholar, you will occasionally be directed to a journal article or other resource but can only access the citation or abstract rather than the complete (full-text) item. In these cases, you will see a blue FIND IT button, which will direct you back to MultiSearch. 

If the library holds the full-text of this item in another database, you’ll now be able to open it from the link you’ve been directed to in MultiSearch.

If the library does not have any full-text holdings for the item you’re looking at, the FIND IT button will direct you back to MultiSearch but this time you’ll be asked to log in to My Library where you will see a link that asks you to submit a Document Delivery Request.  Simply submit this form and we’ll request it from another library for you.

In cases where you can neither view the full-text of an item nor see the FIND IT button, manually fill out thisDocument Delivery form or contact your campus library.

You can also add a FindIt@ACAP link to your Google Scholar searches! To learn about doing this go to the library's Useful Websites page.
