Help with finding articles

Published

Hi I am looking for 2 particular full articles for research

1) Horgas, A., Miller, L.(2008). Pain Assessment in people with dementia. American Journal of Nursing, 108(7),

2) Reinhart, K., Meisner, M., Brunkhorst, F. (2006). Markers for sepsis diagnosis: What is useful?. Critical care Clinics, 22(2006), 503-519.

I already looked at my university's website but all in vain. I would really appreciate any kind of help as to how to find them. Thanks

Does your library use ILL (interlibrary loan?) if the articles aren't in their collection of subscribed pieces, you usually can get it from another institution for a nominal fee. You can also go directly to the journal's site and buy it. Also, if you're at a bricks & mortar school, they may have the journal w/o having the electronic version -- can you check their library catalog? If you're really stuck, PM me

I did use the library inter loan function but the universities librarian said he does not know how long it would take to get them It already has been 5 days. I already checked the library for paper format but no luck. And yes the actual journal sites are charging a fee. I bought a whole ton of books so I will have to wait financially to go with that option. Thanks a lot marachne
