LibKey Nomad extension browser
New faster access to full text evidence and research
All work PCs and laptops in UHP and Livewell Southwest now have a faster route to access full text articles. UHP Digital and Innovation Services (D&1) have made this available on your machine to link to Discovery Library holdings.
What does it do?
When a scholarly publisher page (or others, incl PubMed or Wikipedia) loads, the system checks against our database of Discovery Library holdings and gives links to content including PDF download where available.
How do I use it?
Open Microsoft Edge. You may see an update alert in the top right hand corner of the screen. Restart your browser to obtain the update.
The article link icon will appear when you are on a resource to which we have access (see screenshot below) and clicking will route you via your OpenAthens account to the full text, even if it’s on a different platform.
What else do I need?
