Seeing as many of us are on the iVEC network, I thought I would just send out some notes on any easy way of accessing subscription journals, as if you were on the Curtin network:

With Google scholar, use: http://scholar.google.com.au.dbgw.lis.curtin.edu.au/ For some results this gives a “Find It @ Curtin” link which takes you to the full text database if it exists.

For NASA ADS: Log in to ADS, then at the top right click “my account”. Click “library link settings”. In library link server put “http://sfx.lis.curtin.edu.au/sfx_local”. Save.

If you append .dbgw.lis.curtin.edu.au to many journal websites this will get you the article (assuming the library has subscribed to it). eg. www.journals.uchicago.edu.dbgw.lis.curtin.edu.au http://www.oed.com.dbgw.lis.curtin.edu.au

If you can't find something, document delivery is free for post-grads & staff and they will buy and send you an e-copy if it exists…
