The library now offers a powerful tool called LibKey that helps you find and access scholarly articles more quickly and efficiently. Whether you are starting your research in the library catalog, exploring a database, or browsing the web, LibKey works in the background to connect you directly to the full-text PDF of an article when it is available.
LibKey removes unnecessary steps by skipping confusing links and login screens, saving you time and reducing frustration when trying to access academic materials. It also works with tools you already use, including publisher websites, PubMed, Google Scholar, and others, making it easier to find what you need without delay.
LibKey includes several helpful components:
- LibKey Discovery improves article links in the library catalog for one-click PDF access
- LibKey.io allows you to search for articles using a DOI or PMID
- LibKey Nomad is a browser extension that finds full-text articles as you browse online
