1. This walkthrough demonstrates how to find an article when you have some of the citation information, but the Phillips Library does not have access to the full text of the article through the online databases.

2. For example, I have the following citation for an article: Konok, V., Dóka, A., & Miklósi, Á. (2011). The behavior of the domestic dog (Canis familiaris) during separation from and reunion with the owner: A questionnaire and an experimental study. Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 135(4), 300-308.

3. From the library homepage, select “Databases.”

4. Try searching in the EBSCO databases to see if you can find the article listed. Select Academic Search Complete or any database that has (EBSCO) next to its name. You can also search in ProQuest databases if appropriate to your topic. If you are off campus, you will be required to login with your moodle/AU email login.

5. On the EBSCO home page, click on “Advanced Search”

6. Enter the title of the article, or the beginning of the article title in the first box, then in box on the right side, select “TI title” from the drop-down menu.

7. Look through the result(s) for your article. Click on the “Find It” button in the entry for your article.

8. Click on the “Full text unavailable. Borrow from another library?” Link

9. A new window should open with this request form filled out except for the last 4 boxes. Enter your information into those boxes and Click “Send Request.” The full text of the article will be delivered to the email address you enter into this form in about a week.

10. If you can't find the article listed anywhere, like EBSCO or ProQuest (so as to get to the blue Find It button), then you should send an email to docdel@aurora.edu with a request to interlibrary loan the article and as much information as you have about the article.docdel@aurora.edu
