The easiest way to find the full text of an article is by adding LibKey to your web browser. LibKey is a browser extension that connects users to library-licensed and open-access articles, bringing you directly to the full text. Once LibKey is installed, a link to the PDF appears automatically if 1) USD has a subscription to it, or 2) the article is freely available online (Open Access). For example, when you search for an article in Google Scholar using a browser with LibKey, LibKey will provide a direct link if USD owns it or it's Open Access.
If you have a citation or partial citation for the article, you can also do one of the following:
1) Search for the article in One Search/Books & More.
2) Search for the article using Citation Linker.
3) If you have the article's DOI or PMID, you can search for the article in LibKey.io.
4) Look up the name of the journal in Journal Finder and locate the volume and issue where your article appears. In the example below, the journal title is The New England Journal of Medicine.
Nicholls, S. J., Pavo, I., Bhatt, D. L., Buse, J. B., et al. (2025). Cardiovascular Outcomes with Tirzepatide versus Dulaglutide in Type 2 Diabetes. The New England journal of medicine, 393(24), 2409–2420. https://doi.org/10.1056/NEJMoa2505928
Make sure we have the year that you need. In this example, we have online access to articles published from 1980 to the present.
We have access to articles in print from 1928 (the year the journal began) to 2010; so in total, USD has access to every volume of this journal.
Next, find the volume/issue of the journal where your article appears. In this example, the year is 2025, the volume is 393, and the issue is 24.
Nicholls, S. J., Pavo, I., Bhatt, D. L., Buse, J. B., et al. (2025). Cardiovascular Outcomes with Tirzepatide versus Dulaglutide in Type 2 Diabetes. The New England journal of medicine, 393(24), 2409–2420. https://doi.org/10.1056/NEJMoa2505928
