Online database research is probably the most elegant and reliable way to collect literature related to any field of science or profession today. Access to full articles, except in open access journals, is also possible in selected commercial journals or books database on:

For EBSCO (Academic Search Complete and Others), Elsevier (Science Direct and Scopus) and Thomson Reuters (citation bases Current Contents Connect and Web of Science CC) database, access to subscribed databases is also available from other locations outside the home institution, for example  from home and similar, in which case you need to login. Example:

Sign in or Login / Login via your institution / Other institution login / Select your region or group / Croatian Research and Education Federation - AAI@EduHr

October 5, 2018: Remote access via Shibboleth established at SpringerLink and Nature.com.

You can download the instructions at the following links: NatureSpringerLink


Have a nice search!

The full articles can also be obtained without payment by ordering the article through interlibrary exchange, if the source is available in the Republic of Croatia. Sometimes, commercial databases also provide free access to papers published one year before the time of access or older. Also, one of the authors of the article may be asked by e-mail or regular mail for a copy / reprint (PDF) of the paper. For example:


Dear Prof. XY,

I would appreciate very much if you could send me a PDF copy of your paper: The Title of the Article...., published in Annual Review of Nutrition in 2010.


Thank you!


Best regards

Finally, it is also possible to order article from abroad through the Library, with the payment of an appropriate fee.
