“FULL-TEXT” = COMPLETE ARTICLE
The library databases contain some articles which are “full-text”--that is, there is a link to the complete article—and others that have only the citation and perhaps the abstract (summary).
Even when there is no full-text link in one database, it is possible that the article is available in another
database, or in a print journal owned by the library.
