If you have a citation for a journal article you want to get, use the Journals link to see if the Libraries own or have access to the electronic or print versions of the journal title.


Enter the journal's name in the search box to see if it is available in one of our databases or in print in University Library.

Search box has options Title and Begins with selected. Marvels & Tales has been searched. The results show that Marvels & Tales is a peer-reviewed journal with options for full text access with links into the databases Project Muse and Humanities Full Text .

The list of databases under "Full Text Access" provides the date ranges available and the link to the database where the journal is housed.

Use the date, volume, issue, title, and page information in your citation to locate the article you need.

Rider University Library can obtain articles (and book chapters and books!) from other libraries through Interlibrary Loan. From the Library home page, click the button "ILL & Document Delivery" button and fill out the request form for books or articles.

The ILL & Document Delivery box on the library home page is indicated by a purple arrow. The red box is to the left of the search box.

 

 

Under Access options, the link is highlighted for ILL: "Request this title from another library (ILL!"

Within a database, you can easily request an Interlibrary Loan when we do not have full text access.

  • You will be prompted to log in to the ILL system with your Rider Key
  • The citation information will be filled in automatically on your own user account.
    • Please check for completeness.
    • Make sure you fill in the date by which you need it--it's a required field.
  • The article or book chapter will be delivered to you electronically in a day or two--or even hours!
