How to Find Journals in Our Library

The Library Search boxes below  will let you find both print and electronic journals held by the Library. The first one is set to find the exact title. If you're not sure of the exact title, try the second box, using selected words from the title.

Our range of journals includes a number of large publishers' collections such as:-

American Psychiatric Publishing
Full text of the journals produced by the American Psychiatric Association.

PsycARTICLES
Provides full text access to articles from journals published by APA and allied organizations. Covers general psychology and specialized basic, applied, clinical, and theoretical research in psychology.

Science Direct
Contains the full text of journals published by Elsevier Science in the life, physical, medical, technical, and social sciences.

You need to access journals through our links, as if you go direct to the publisher's site your library membership will not be recognised, and you will be asked to pay for access to full text.

Other options:-

Try typing the title of the article (in inverted commas) into Scopus. If the journal is indexed in Scopus you will then be able to check for full text online.
You will also be able to:-

  • see articles which cited this reference
  • see the references used by the author(s) of the article

PubMed has a Single Citation Matcher, which allow you to find individual articles from journals included in Medline.

Requesting a Scanned Article from a Print Journal

Not all of our journals are available in electronic format and if you're in the Library you can scan articles from print journals to your USB (at no charge)

But if you're at home, or it's just not easy for you to get to the Library, we have a scanning service which can provide you with electronic copies - and it's free

Details of how to make a request are below..

Interlibrary Requests

When We Don't Have the Journal You Need


Check
 the catalogues of  Flinders University and the University of South Australia. If either of these libraries holds the journal, you can visit the library and make a copy of the article you need.

OR

Request a copy of the article on interlibrary loan, through our Document Delivery service.
Up to 50 requests are supplied free of charge for each person for each calendar year.

Details of charges for subsequent requests can be found on our Document Delivery page
 

The document below will show you how you do it.

(For book requests, just go to the the Inter Library Request link in Library Search ).

What is a DOI?

DOI is an acronym for  Digital Object Identifier. It is an alphanumeric code which is used to identify a variety of resources. The resource can be any entity — physical, digital or abstract — that you wish to identify, primarily for sharing with an interested user community or managing as intellectual property.

  • If the object is available online, the DOI gives a permanent internet address for it. If the URLs or services change over time, e.g., the resource moves, this same DOI will continue to resolve to the correct resources or services at their new locations.
  • This means that a DOI is much more reliable for locating an online item than a URL, which may change.

Digital Object Identifier System
This site allows you to search for a resource by DOI. For more in formation about DOIs see their FAQs page

CrossRef
CrossRef is an association of scholarly publishers that develops shared infrastructure to support more effective scholarly communications.
You can paste references into its search box and discover their DOIs.
CrossRef's database can also be searched for authors, titles, ORCIDs, ISSNs, FundRefs, license URIs, etc.

Style Guides And Instructions To Authors

 If the links below don't solve your problem, the University's Writing Centre can provide additional help. The Library also has a general referencing style guides page, if you need information on a style not covered here.

The Harvard or author-date system of referencing is one of the commonly used systems, but there are several versions which differ slightly from one another.
