LibKey.io

LibKey.io Logo

LibKey.io allows for full-text retrieval of items via SUNY Cortland Memorial Library by inputting either the digital object identifier (DOI) or PubMed Identifier (PMID) into the LibKey.io search box. These identifiers are unique to individual articles. If the full text of the item is available, a link to the article and/or PDF will be provided; if not, a link for "Library Access Options" will bring you back to the library website to request the item via ILLiad.

How to Use LibKey.io for DOI

Go to LibKey.io

Make sure SUNY Cortland is selected as your organization (this should be automatic if you are signed into MyRedDragon).

Locate the DOI (digital object identifier) for the article and paste it into the search bar.

Note that you may need to remove the URL (ex: doi.org) from the content, or else it will come up as "Invalid Input." In this example, remove "https://doi.org/" and leave the rest of the information in the search box. Click "Find DOI" to search.
