What is fulltext?
When a search is performed on a fulltext database (EbscoHost or National Newspapers), the results will contain links to the whole article, or fulltext. Early computer databases only provided a citation, indicating where a print or microfilm version of the article could be found. As computer speeds and storage capacities increased, fulltext became more available. Complete articles can now be printed, downloaded to disk, or e-mailed from the computers used for searching. Availability of fulltext in the databases varies–a fulltext icon () indicates whether fulltext is available for a given article.
