If you are not able to determine if the library owns a journal, use the CitationLinker which is used to locate fulltext for a specific article using its PMID (PubMed Identifier), author or citation information.

If you are unable to find articles online or in the print collection, the Eccles Library can order them via InterLibrary Loan for you. This service is free to students, and available for a nominal fee for faculty, staff and the general public.
