Q. I could only find the abstract of an article – how do I find the full text?

If you would like to read the full text of an article but can only find the abstract (summary) of the article, try Publication Finder. But you can also restrict your searches to only full-text articles, which will avoid this problem (see the TIP on the bottom of this box). TIP: In many databases, you can click on a button to limit your search results to only full-text articles either before or after your search. We recommend that you always check the full-text when you start a search, unless you are looking for something very obscure. Please see below for how to do it.
