See instructions below. Depending on when the request is submitted, Interlibrary Loan will supply the desired article(s) somewhere between 24 - 72 hours.

Drew University Faculty and Staff Users

PLEASE NOTE:

As of 01/01/15, access to pay-per-download content from ScienceDirect via Faculty/Staff username and password is fully restored. When buying pay-per-download content, please click the purchase icon at the top of the page rather than the one mid-page.  We are working with ScienceDirect to correct a problem with the mid-page purchase icon (or have it removed entirely)-- it currently does not allow the user to complete a purchase. Please contact Drew Univ Library at reference@drew.edu with questions.
