Alternative access to Elsevier journals

2018/07/18

The institutional access for members of the TU Darmstadt to articles in Elsevier journals published after 31 December 2017 is no longer possible. The ULB has established an „Elsevier Service Group“ which will procure scientific papers from Elsevier formerly available in full text on alternative ways (interlibrary loan, commercial document delivery services, open access publications).

For the academic staff papers will be delivered in print directly into the office, students can collect papers at the library.

The ULB assumes all costs and expenses for inter library loans of TU members. Orders by academic staff via the document delivery service SUBITO will be subsidized within the scope of financial possibilities.

To order, please contact Elsevier Service Group and provide the following information:

  • author, title of scientific paper, journal title, year of publication, volume, pages (or DOI)
  • name, first name, and library card number
  • office address
  • order by inter library loan or SUBITO?

Alternatively, TU members can use an online order form.
