PubMed FindIt Button Not Working

Posted on May 28, 2024 by ebrown

The yellow FindIt button in PubMed that links to full-text is not functional at the moment. As we work to resolve the issue there are two options:

  1. Use another full-text link in PubMed (for example, from the publisher)
  2. Use the Medline (Ovid) database from our A-Z list of databases.

We will let you know when the issue has been resolved.
