Science Direct is one online database to which the library subscribes. It is important to note that while Science Direct is a collection of electronic journals, the USF Library does not subscribe to every journal in the Science Direct collection. About 300 journals are available with full text to USF users. To see all of the titles available to you in full text, in the green box on the Science Direct search screen, choose the option for “Subscribed” in the “Display” field. Articles not immediately available in full text through Science Direct may be available in the USF library in print or available through Interlibrary Loan.
