How to Access Journals from the iVEC Network

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

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…
