Finding Full Text

The easiest way to find the full text of articles in CINAHL is to limit your search results to articles with the full text available. The button can be found in the left hand menu: 

Within these results, you will see different types of full text:

 This symbol indicates that a PDF document will open up within the CINAHL database.

 This symbol indicates that the full text is contained within the CINAHL database in a web format rather than a document format. 

 This symbol indicates that the full text is available through another webpage, which is linked to the CINAHL database through this button.

If you are looking for a specific article but you only have the citation or abstract, use the link below to locate the complete article.

If we do not have the full text of an article you need, place a request through interlibrary loan.
