| + | ===== Accessing scientific literature ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | There are 3 common ways to obtain a full-length scientific article: | ||
| + | - Directly from the website of the journal. This works for open-access journals and journals to which ETH subscribes. For the latter, you need to access from an ETH IP address (at ETH or through VPN). | ||
| + | - For typically older articles, from the main Library (you can request a photocopy on [[http://www.nebis.ch|NEBIS]]). | ||
| + | - For articles neither online nor at the ETH library (no subscription), you can send a copy request to the ETH Library ([[http://www.ethbib.ethz.ch/cgi-bin/ilv/ilv_copy.pl?LANG=en|Request Form]]). They will get it for you through partner libraries or by buying the article directly from the publisher. | ||
