Find a Specific Article or Journal: Search for an Article by Title

If you have an article citation, see whether or not the PSU Library holds the full text  or print article:

     1. Use Google Scholar from the PSU Library web site, enter the title of the article in the search box.

     2. If the article is available in full text or print, click on Find it @ PSU. 

     3. The Download Article link provides the full text article, the journal level for it, or the call number for the article in print. 

 If PSU Library does not have the article in full text or in print, order the article from Interlibrary Loan & Article Delivery.

Request the article through using the article record in the catalog. When the article is available, you will be notified via your pdx.edu email. This process takes about 24 hours or less.

For more information on how to request items in the catalog, please see the Interlibrary Loan & Article Delivery webpage. 

You can search the PSU Library Catalog for the full text of articles. Type or copy and paste the article title into the search box.

Look for the correct article from your search results. You will see you will see either a green "Online Access" link or a blue "Find & Request" link. 

• The "Online Access" link means that full text access to the article is immediately available.
• The "Find & Request" link means that PSU does not have access to the article, but you can request it through Interlibrary Loan & Article Delivery.

For articles with a "Online Access" link, click the link, then follow the provider link to the full text. 

Sometimes there are multiple links; they all should take you to the article, but if one doesn't work, try another.
