ePub ahead of Print

 ePub ahead of print means that the article is being listed online before it is released in the published journal issue, whether published online or in print.

Whether you can access the full-text of the epub-ahead-of-print will depend on the publisher’s rules for our subscription. Some publishers will include ahead-of-print in our subscription and you’ll have no problem accessing them. However, some publishers will not include this access in our subscription.

Unfortunately, there is no way of indicating whether the epub-ahead-of-print is available or not on our journal lists. You won’t really be able to tell unless you try to access it and fail.

What can you do if you want an unavailable epub-ahead-of-print?

  1. Wait – you can wait for the issue to be published that will include the article
  2. Apply for an article request – we will see if another library is able to provide a copy. Complete our online form to make a request.

If you need any help accessing full-text articles, please contact the Health Library.
