    Links to where you can access the article will be listed. Clicking on the "View Full Text" link will open a new page where you should be able to access the online article in html or PDF format.

  2. Article potentially available in print only

If the print journal is found, make sure to check the article's publication year to see if the Library has the journal for the year in which the article was published.
