Retrieving Full Text

The full text of most articles is available in Academic Search Premier. You will find links to either an HTML version or a pdf version of the full text if it is available. Remember, if there is not a full text link for the article you need, look for a "BSU owns this title" link. If there are no links at all, the article is not available from University Libraries' collections and may be requested through interlibrary loan.

There are several important differences between HTML and pdf versions of full text articles.

  • HTML files contain text and some pictures. For articles containing graphs and charts, choose the pdf version if available.
  • To see the article in the same format as it appeared in the original publication, choose the pdf version if available.
  • As a scanned image of the text, a pdf version contains page numbers from the print version of the article. The original page numbers are useful if you plan on quoting from an article in your paper.
