E-journals at UTK
Most e-journals are linked from the databases through the FindText button after each article. If you want to browse in a particular e-journal or check whether UTK subscribes, there is an e-journals directory. Also, you can generally find e-journals in the library catalog (box in middle of UTK Libraries home page), although it is best to check the e-journals directory, as well.

Solving Off-Campus Access Problems
Occasionally there are temporary problems accessing databases off-campus. UT Libraries recommends accessing our online resources by searching for the resource through OneSearch. Access to UT Libraries online subscriptions and purchases is restricted to current active Faculty, Staff, and Students. For more information, please review the Electronic Resource Use Policy.
- Use Databases with Similar ContentMany databases overlap with other ones that UT subscribes to. For example, Compendex and Scopus share a great deal of content. Contact Mikayla Wood, the Engineering Librarian, if you want to know what other resources to use when a database is unavailable.
- Submit a chat question on the library siteThe staff who receive chat questions can connect your question with the library's eproblems unit,
