For education article research you will likely begin with ERIC or Education Research Complete databases and search on your topic. When you find a description (abstract) of the article you want to read, probably your next step will be to retrieve the full-text. First, look for a link that says "full-text". If you are looking at the details page it will be near the bottom of the screen.
Second, look for a link that says "360 link to full-text". If you click on this icon, it will begin a search through our many databases for the full article. The screen you get may include several options: 1) an "article" link that will take you to the specific article you need online; 2) a database link where you can access the database you can search for your article; 3) a link telling you to search Penfield Library, which takes you to the catalog to see what we have in paper version for your journal; 4) the note that we do not own this journal, with a link provided to request on Interlibrary Loan (ILL).
ILL is an excellent and convenient was to get articles (and books) that our library does not own either electronically or in paper. To register, or for more information, click to go to the ILL webpage.
