New Resources at UAB Libraries

UAB Libraries is pleased to announce the addition of Elsevier’s ScienceDirect Journal & Ebook Collection!

  • ScienceDirect is a full-text scientific database of peer-reviewed science, technology, and health articles and book chapters.
  • To find content use the e-journals and e-books search at www.uab.edu/lister, link to the Science Direct Freedom Collection using  ArticleLinker in databases like PubMed, or access the ScienceDirect website by searching for “S” on the databases page and selecting ScienceDirect. 
  • Find new journal titles or new backfiles  by browsing the Alphabetic list of E-journals in Optometry/Ophthalmology shown in SerialsSolutions. Titles or backfiles added through this new acquisition will be labeled as ScienceDirect Freedom Collection or ScienceDirect Backfiles.
