PubMed search tip: Getting full-text articles can be frustrating. If you are using an Intermountain computer to search PubMed (a few in Primary Children's are on the U of U network) , and you look at the citation results in abstract format you may see an icon that is blue-green with yellow words "Online Full-text". This icon indicates we have an electronic subscription to access that particular journal. Click it to get the full-text.
If you see the blue icon with "Primary Children's Medical Center Print Collection" the article is available from the library and you may make a copy or request that one be sent to your email as a PDF.
