Full Text

The complete electronic text of an article is called the full text. Some databases provide entire articles online (though not always with images).

What if there are pictures or graphs with the article that you want to see?

To find pictures originally published with the article, you may need to get the print copy from the library. Some databases provide full content. Full content is the electronic version of the entire article including graphs, charts, pictures and text. Often the database will distinguish what it is providing by labeling it as text or text with graphics.
