Accessing Ovid Full Text

Ovid Full Text links display records to which your site has purchased a subscription in Journals@Ovid or an Ovid Deposit Account. Buy Now links display records to which you have purchased Full Text access through an Ovid PayPerView transaction. When the three types of Ovid Full Text access exist in the same session, the order of priority is as follows:

ACCESS	LINK TYPE	MORE INFORMATION
Journals@Ovid		This category of Ovid Full Text includes any correlating PAP Full Text. See also Links@Ovid or Link Options.
Deposit Accounts		See Deposit Account Access to Ovid Full Text.
	Ovid Full Text is the default link name of Ovid Full Text access through a deposit account. Depending on link configurations in your site, this may be named differently. For clarity about link names, contact your site administrator.
PayPerView		See Ovid's PayPerView and Purchase Ovid Full Text.

 By setting a cookie to your local PC, OvidSP makes a 24-hour access possible . These tasks may only be performed from the same PC on which the cookie was set. Do not clear cookies during the 24-hour access period! If you do, your purchased access will be lost and may not be recovered.

When the balance of a deposit account is depleted or the account is no longer active, OvidSP automatically converts Ovid Full Text links to Buy Now links.

Publish Ahead of Print in OvidSP

Your site's subscription to Journals@Ovid includes Publish Ahead of Print (PAP)—online access to critical content before it is published in a printed form. PAP Full Text is made available in selected journals from publishers who participate with OvidSP's Publish Ahead of Print program. All PAP content has been peer-reviewed and accepted for publishing.

Active PAP records represent the current version of PAP content. Throughout your session, OvidSP labels PAP records as follows to indicate the stage of publishing development of the PAP record's content:

• Post-acceptance  Content has been peer-reviewed and accepted for publishing.
• Post-copyedit  Content has been edited for grammar and spelling, and facts have been checked for accuracy and conformity to a desired format.
• Post-author-corrections  Content has undergone further review by the author for accuracy.
• Post-editor-corrections  Content has been polished by both the author and the editor to improve the final results.

Search or browse for PAP records from within your OvidSP session.

OvidSP assigns a posting date to every PAP record. The PAP post date is the date on which that version of PAP content was entered into the Journals@Ovid database.

Click a PAP record's Ovid Full Text link, and OvidSP displays a PDF version of the link.

 You must have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed to view PAP Full Text. OvidSP launches PDF files on separate windows where you may save, email, and print the full text directly from the reader. To return to your session, click the Previous Page link.

When PAP content is published in print, OvidSP removes the record from the PAP issue, converts it to an Ovid Full Text record, and inserts it in the online journal issue of Journals@Ovid.

 Content in any stage of pre-publication may change significantly before final publication. Because OvidSP's PAP articles present content that is in-process toward final publication, their statements, opinions, and information may contain errors in facts, figures, or interpretation. With this in mind, apply responsibly any information you might gain from Journals@Ovid PAP articles.

External Full Text Access

Links@Ovid provides access to external (non-OvidSP) resources as part of your session. OvidSP identifies these resources with Full Text links that display throughout your session, including within the Full Text display.

In cases where there is only a single instance of external full text, the article will pop-up once you click the Full Text link, without any additional prompting by the user.

If there is more than one link available (as shown below), you will be prompted by an additional pop-up window which will ask you which article you want to see. Upon selection, the appropriate article is displayed in a new window.

External Full Text links open in a separate window when the full text is available as a free internet resource or through a login or IP validated account. To ensure uninterrupted access, disable your web browser's pop-up blockers.

 Hold down the ALT key and click the TAB to toggle between your OvidSP session and the external resource.

 Site administrators and external publishing providers control the availability of content from non-OvidSP sites. If an external site is consistently unavailable, contact your site administrator.

 Local holdings access servers (such as an OPAC) are located outside an OvidSP session. If you receive error messages when trying to use a Library Holdings link, the remote server might be unavailable. Error messages display if too many users are trying to access the OPAC at the same time. Try to link again after a few minutes. If the error messages continue, contact your site administrator.
