Getting to Full Text from Hospitals and Clinics

Are you having trouble finding free full-text articles from a computer in hospitals or clinics?

Be sure you authenticate at the Rudolph Matas Library web page before starting your search to access full-text journal articles, online books, and databases. All of the Tulane Hospitals and Clinics are on a different computer network than the University, making it necessary for you to sign in. You must follow the same procedure as if you are off-campus. Sometimes hospitals may have additional security and firewalls that may interfere with this process. Please contact the Library Reference Desk if you have problems, medref@tulane.edu or 988-5155.

If you need something that is not available, you can request it through ILLiad, the library’s free and speedy interlibrary loan service.
