Ingenta is a leading provider of scholarly electronic full-text journals direct to the desktop, offering thousands of titles from nearly 200 publishers covering subjects such as science, medicine, technical/engineering, scholarly humanities, and academic business disciplines. If your library offers one or more electronic subscriptions to Ingenta journals and has activated the use of Ingenta, then you will be able to access the full-text of Ingenta articles right from this Gale collection.
| Note: In order to access Ingenta materials, you must be searching directly in or have selected either General OneFile and/or Expanded Academic ASAP to cross-search. If these databases are not shown on the Database Menu when you click Change Databases, then they are not part of your library's subscription and you will be unable to access Ingenta materials at this time. |
To find Ingenta materials, use any available search method to perform your search, keeping in mind that Ingenta articles will only appear on the Academic Journals tab. On the results list and on your Marked Items list, Ingenta results items appear along with native Gale items. However, the PDF link will indicate that the PDF version is "available through your institutional subscription." Click the document title and the document display page will display the citation, or the citation and abstract, depending on whichever is available, along with the Ingenta logo.
To access the full text of the Ingenta article, click the PDF link from the results list, Marked Items, or document display page.
In cases where your library does not have a subscription in its collection, the pay-per-view option may be enabled. This feature allows library patrons to purchase articles via standard e-commerce functionality. To place an order, you must register with Ingenta during the purchase process. If you have already registered, you may use your password to add articles to your shopping cart.
Some libraries may fund the purchase of individual articles on behalf of library patrons. You will still need to register as a user even if your library pays for your articles. Please review library policies to maximize your access to Ingenta articles.
When e-mailing an Ingenta article, you may choose to receive only the Citation (and also the abstract, if present). Or select Full text or PDF and Gale will send an e-mail request to Ingenta and Ingenta will send you an e-mail with either the pricing for ordering the full text, or will send the full text as an attachment.
Only the citation or abstract portion of an Ingenta article can be printed. However, the system will print at the bottom of the document the URL address that will allow you to retrieve the full text of the article as a Gale Bookmark.
