Physical Therapy: Full Text/Off-Campus Access

You can access UAB Libraries electronic resources from on or off campus. When you click on a link for a library-licensed resource (database, e-journal, etc.) while off campus, you will be prompted to enter your Blazer ID/password.

When you are in PubMed, CINAHL, or Scopus and find an article of interest, look for and click this button to see what full text options are available:

PEDro, ArticleSearch, and Hooked on Evidence do NOT include the Full Text@UAB Libraries button (to access full text). Therefore, you will need to follow the step below to track down articles found in these databases: 

First, try PubMed:

• Copy and paste the article title into the PubMed search blank on the library's homepage and click Search
• If you find the article in PubMed, click on the title so that you're viewing the page with the abstract. 
• Click the Full Text@UAB Libraries button in the top right.

If the article is not in PubMed, try Google Scholar:

• Set your preferences to show Lister Hill Library holdings.
• Copy and paste the article title into the Google Scholar search blank and put quotation marks around it. Click Search.
• If you find the article on the results list, click on the Find it @ UAB link next to the citation.

If the library does not have the article you need, you can request it from another library using Illiad (interlibrary loan).
