LibKey Nomad is a browser extension that makes off-campus searching easier. While searching the web, you can quickly see which articles are available to you through UWM Libraries.
When you click on a LibKey Nomad link, it will take you to UWM's ePanther login and then straight on to the full-text article. After you login once, you won't have to login again until you close your browser.
Sometimes databases only include the summaries of articles, and you'll need to find the full-text article another way. Click on the "GetIt!" icon beside articles link to other access options.
You never have to pay for a scholarly article. If you can't find an article or book in Search@UW or the library databases, you can always place a free request for the article using the Libraries Interlibrary Loan service.
In general, interlibrary loan requests take between 2-3 days for articles and 10-14 days to fill books. Some requests may take longer.
