Finding the Full Text

What to do when the full text is not available?

Use "Journal Finder" - either the link near the article citation, or on the Library's home page.  Just type in the journal name and check for the date you need.

If there are no results -
Use ILL@CNU, the Interlibrary Loan system to request the article you need
or
Check for holdings at other local libraries, and take your VTC card and go get the article yourself.
More information about the VTC card is below.

Never pay for full text! Ask for help if you're not sure!

Curious about local libraries?

Use other library catalogs to locate resources - be sure you have a VTC card before you visit!

As a CNU student, you can borrow materials from other area college and university libraries that belong to the Virginia Tidewater Consortium (VTC) for Higher Education. 

BEFORE you go to another library,
pointer graphic       get the VTC card
from the Circulation Desk in the Trible Library. 

You must present the VTC card and your CNU ID at the library in order to borrow materials.  The VTC cards are free and good for one semester.
