If you need full-text for an article citation in CINAHL, you have two options:Image of ILL service

  • Interlibrary Loan (ILL): The KU library offers a free service for requesting articles that the library does not own. You can fill out the form found here. Note that the request can take some time (a few days at least) to process, and sometimes you might have to pick up a physical copy of the article in the library (due to copyright).
  • Medical library liaison: You can also send article requests to your medical librarian at jason.fetty@ku.ac.ae to see if he can help fulfill you request.
