Often, simply searching the title of an article in quotation marks in Google Scholar will bring you to the electronic version.

This video shows how to identify the journal title from a citation.
If JMU doesn't have access to the full-text of the article, we can borrow it from another library -- at no cost to you. Interlibrary Loan is a service for requesting articles and other materials that are not available in JMU Libraries collections. All students, faculty, and staff with a valid JMU e-ID can use Interlibrary Loan services.
Our ILL team can retrieve the articles you need within a few days -- and sometimes within just a few hours!
