Use PubMed LinkOut to Access Online Journals

The library has implemented PubMed's LinkOut feature, which displays the library's Get It button on PubMed citations. Using this button will link to additional full text that may be available outside of PubMed, and it will also allow you to access the ILL link if there is no full text available. Using the PubMed version from the library's Find Articles page will allow you to take advantage of this feature.
