Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics Part B now online!

We have now added JPO Part B to our list of online journal content. It is available back to 2001. If articles do not show up automatically when you do a search, go to the library's web-based journals page
http://tsrhkids/mlibrary/web-based.htm
to access it and let me know so I can work on it.

Please be sure to logoff when you have finished printing your article as we have a very limited amount of access and if you forget to logoff you may inconvenience another user.

Sage Journals free through Oct. 31.

Until October 31, journals from Sage Publications are free online to institutions that subscribe to even one title in celebration of their 40th anniversary and their 1st anniversary of being online.
http://online.sagepub.com/

At their website you can search by topic or title. Topics include pediatrics, nursing, neuroscience, education, psychology, sociology, research methods, rehabilitation medicine, surgery, radiology and computer science among others. You can even see a list of the "most read" articles in particular journals. A good time to sample some titles.

We are able to access these titles due to our subscriptions to Journal of Transcultural Nursing and also Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair.

including the FACES pain scale with instructions in over 20 languages.

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics

9-12-05: It has come to my attention that a search done in EBSCO MEDLINE will show a full text link to JPO for a 2002 article but not for a 2004 article. However, when you click along to OVID to reach the full text it asks for a password. That is not right, so I am checking with EBSCO. Please print JPO articles (and SPINE and CORR) through the Web-based Journals list at the Medical Library website. Be sure you log out when you have printed your article. Sorry for the inconvenience.

However, you can reach it by going to the publisher website from that page.

Joint Commission Benchmark, J Infant Child & Adolescent Psychotherapy

9-22-05 Website has been updated. You can now access JOINT COMMISSION BENCHMARK through the library's web-based journals page. I will add the other later as there are still some questions.

Joint Commission Perspectives

9-22-05 Website has been updated. You can now access this through the library's web-based journals page.

8/18/05 -- 11:30 -- current link no longer gives us immediate access. Started process of updating institutional registration.
1:30 -- Had to write both Joint Commission and IngentaConnect because 2000-2002 is at the JC headquarters, while the 2003- issues are through IngentaConnect.

8-31-05 Joint Commission Perspectives -- but passwords not yet permitting free access
http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/jcaho/jcp

9-22-05 access now available at above link from 2003- but not on the EJS site. Wrote agent to work on that problem. Not currently able to add a user note to the Quick List though.

Child Development

8-17-05: While our actual subscription only includes about a year's worth of online access, I've just discovered that our database subscription provides free pdf full text all the way back to v.1, 1930 and no waiting a year to see current issues either! Scroll down to the bottom A-C listing for now, but I will update the webpage soon. mp

The Lancet

Although we do not receive a print subscription to The Lancet, we actually do have online access!
We get it as part of a full text database. If you go to the Web-based Journals page of the Medical Library website and scroll down in the list of titles, you will see the link.
http://tsrhkids/mlibrary/web-based.htm

1991-1998 is just in html format, but after that it is the nice pdf version that prints so well.

If you would like to set up an email journal alert to hear about new issues you can use the My EBSCOhost feature. Click on "Journal Alert" and you will be led to set up the account. They will not send you any bothersome email, but there you can manage the table of contents alerts you wish to receive. You can also use this feature to save searches you like to run regularly.

Journal of Pediatrics

8-10-05 agent reports : The publisher site links for The Journal of Pediatrics have been updated. All Mosby and Saunders links have been updated.

8-8-05 received report from our agent: Publisher links for the Elsevier imprints Mosby, Hanley & Belfus, and WB Saunders require users to navigate to new journal homepages. EJS is working with Elsevier to update the links and apologizes for any inconvenience.

7-28-05 am - user email reported unable to access articles with the password.
10:30am -- institutional access has to be re-activated due to publisher changes. In progress mp.
10:45am -- reported to agent (EBSCO). I can get it to work at http://www2.us.elsevierhealth.com/inst/serve?action=searchDB&searchdbfor=pub&id=pd so please use that while agent updates their address. Passwords still work there. mp

"Archiv Orthop"

(We do not offer "free" online access to these titles, but articles can be obtained for you if needed.)

This is a tricky abbreviation. It can stand for a German, Italian or American title! Plus the voluming is similar in some older years.

German and English-language: (Note from rep at Springer, the company that now handles full text content for the English and German title) "The current title of 'Archiv fur Orthopadische und Unfall-chirurgie' is : Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery (Historical Archive) http://www.springerlink.com/openurl.asp?genre=journal&issn=0936-8051&target=archive and under the historical archive of this current title the content of the predecessors of this journal can be found. This current journal had the following predecessors:- Archives of orthopaedic and traumatic surgery- Archiv für orthopädische und Unfall-Chirurgie- Archiv für Orthopädie, Mechanotherapie und UnfallchirurgieIf you have a historic article you are looking for you can find it via the search engine. In future also the former journal titles will be searchable. Currently all tables of content and abstract of the historic content that is already available can be viewed." ISSN 0003-9330

Italian: the title is Archivio di Ortopedia ISSN 0004-0118

Scandinavian journals

Today I discovered that there is a 12 month "embargo" on some of the Scandinavian journals we access through the A-Z listings at the bottom of the Web-based Journals link. That means we can get them in full text online after 12 months. I'll be updating that information on the website soon.

Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery

8-8-05 update from agent: The missing content in The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery V87 #3 -7 has been added to the EJS service.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery online content is delayed through our direct link, but you can still get to it by clicking through to the publisher site. There they have more recent issues posted.

8-1-05 update from our agent -- The content team is still working with the publisher to secure the missing content in Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery V87 #3 - #7.

New England Journal of Medicine

Our subscription does not include current online access. However, after 6 months full text of Original and Special Articles is available online. Also, articles in the most current issue often make the news before print subscribers even receive their issues. If you need an article, please contact the librarian.

J Hand Surgery - British

Journal of Hand Surgery, the British version, is now available to us online for a rolling 12 months. That means when the new issue is available, the 13th issue drops off online access. I'll add it next time I update the website, but for now you can reach it here:

http://ejournals.ebsco.com/Journal.asp?JournalID=104130

J Am Acad Child & Adol Psychiatry

Question: do we still have online access to Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry?
Answer: We no longer have online access to this title. It has joined the ranks of the LWW titles so it is now very expensive to obtain online access. If you wish to vote that we add this title, please contact me. mp
