Get it at UC connects you from a source citation to the resource.

You will be taken to UC Library Search where you can navigate to the full-text of the source OR initiate a request for the source through Interlibrary Loan (ILL).

The Get it at UC button will appear in many library databases. Use it to more easily locate or request the resources you need!

When full text is available in PubMed Central (PMC), the "PMC FREE Full text" icon will appear on the citation's abstract page under Full-Text Links. Click the icon to view the article in PMC. PMC is the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) free digital archive of biomedical and life sciences journal literature.

When looking at an article record, you will see Full Text links to the right of the article title. Full text options may include free access through PubMed Central or access via a publisher link, along with Get it at UC.

To display UC-eLinks, connect to PubMed through the Library (from the A-Z database list or the below database entry) while on campus or connected to the VPN. 

Journal publishers may provide access to articles for free, after registering as an individual or guest, or for a fee. Select the publisher icon if full text if not available through PubMed Central or UC-eLinks. If full text is not free from the publisher, return to the UC-eLInks menu to place an ILL request.
