Use SHU library links to access our journal subscriptions The cost of these subscriptions is included in your tuition. Our subscription isn’t validated if you go directly to a journal’s public site (for example, from a Google link). Outside our subscription link, you will be asked to pay for each article you wish to access. DON’T PAY TWICE! Use the library link.
