Why have I been asked to pay for access to a full text article I want?

UPDATED 31 JAN 2024 | 4:17AM

Curtin Library provides students with access to a large number of full text, online resources. However, you will only be offered the option to link to the article if you are logged in with your Curtin ID and if Curtin Library has subscribed access to the online version. Unfortunately, the article you are interested in may fall outside of our subscription due to a range of factors such as cost, availability, publisher requirements, copyright, etc.

If a Find It option is displayed, access may be available via an alternate source.

Eligible clients (Curtin Staff and Postgraduate students) may also use the Document Delivery service if an item in the library catalogue is not available online.
