If you have trouble accessing a specific article, ask the library for help or try the following:
These databases contain research that is relevant to your assignment in this course. Each database contains slightly different information, so always search at least 2-3 databases, though more is better!
For search tips, scroll further down the page. For more information about peer review and what an "original" research article is, click the "Research Basics" menu item in this guide.
Always access PubMed through the library website so it knows you are a TWU student and gives you access to more articles.

Most databases only show a description of each article. To view the full article, you must locate the PDF. The location and appearance of the PDF link is different in each database. Below are some examples:
In EBSCOhost databases
In ScienceDirect
In SciTech Premium Collection
Sometimes an article is discoverable in a database but doesn't "live" in that database. If you don't see a PDF link, look for a link that says something like "Find Full Text.." This link will either take you to the database where the article lives, or it will prompt you to submit an "Article Delivery Request."
In Web of Science
In PubMed
