Physical Therapy

The following databases are good places to start when looking for physical therapy information:

There are TWO TITLES that you encounter when searching the literature and looking at database results.

1. The title of the INDIVIDUAL ARTICLE.   
2. The title of the JOURNAL (think 'publication' or 'source') that the individual article appeared in, along with many other articles. 

Click the  icon in the database results and you will be linked directly to the full text or PDF if QU has access to the article

• If QU does not have access, you are linked to the Journal Locator page where you will see the “Request via Interlibrary Loan” link. Clicking the link opens ILLiad, QU’s interlibrary loan program and automatically fills the citation information into a new ILLiad request so you can request a copy of the article.  

• There is no charge for requesting articles through ILLiad and most ILL requests are filled within 2 business days.

If you need a journal article that is not ownded by the library, you may request it through Interlibrary Loan (ILL). 

• The service is free. 
• Articles in PDF format will be sent to your QU email. Articles usually arrive within a few days but might take longer. 

ILL requests should be submitted online from the Interlibrary Loan page.
