6. You need to check whether the holdings cover the year / volume / issue for the article you are looking for. In this example the journal is available online at Journals@Ovid from 2009. Archived issues are also available in other databases.

Clicking the link next to the entry will take you to the website where you can access this title, for the listed holdings. Note that you may have to log in on the provider’s website – you’ll need your Keele computer login details to do this.
