You need to create your Science Direct account on campus before you use it off campus. If you are an online or distance student please ask for assistance getting your account setup.

On Campus:

Visit sciencedirect.com and create an account. Start by clicking the Sign In button in the top right corner.

When searching Science Direct, you'll see an "Order Document" button to request the article.

You can request up to three articles per day from Science Direct this way. Any requests that you make beyond that will be requested through interlibrary loan.

Off Campus:

When searching Science Direct from off campus, make sure to sign in using the information you created when you setup your Science Direct account. Make sure to sign in right away in order to get the Order Document link to appear.
