Here is a quick overview of tip for finding articles! 

Scopus is an abstract and citation database focused on social, physical, life, and health sciences, with over 94 million records.

One really nifty feature of Scopus is that it will allow you to discover research authored by the faculty at Appalachian State in a very easy way. On the Documents tab, use the drop down menu on the left to select keywords, Click on Add Search field, from the drop down menu select "Search Within Affiliation name, you can then select Appalachian State University:

If you click on a document from this list, you will then be able to tell if we have full access to the article (it would say Download PDF), and be able to also quickly see how many and who have cited your found document.

Did you click on the "Find@ASU" button and we didn't have the full-text of the article you wanted? If there is a specific article that Belk Library does not have, you can request it through inter-library loan. We will ask for the article from another library and it will be emailed to you.

Choose option 3 to request through inter-library loan and the information from your article will populate the fields. Fill in the required information and that's it! Note that the first time you request an inter-library loan, you will need to set up a new account.
