LibKey Nomad is a simple-to-use browser extension that allows access to UWA’s subscribed content quickly and reliably when searching the open web. 

Add the LibKey Nomad browser extension (in Chrome or Firefox) to access full text content when browsing the web. Select University of Western Australia when prompted. If full text is available via UWA, a Download PDF button will pop up. LibKey Nomad is installed by default on UWA-managed computers (ie; UWA staff laptops).

LibKey will activate on websites like Google Scholar, PubMed and more to quickly connect you to full text in one click. If you hit a paywall on a publisher website LibKey Nomad will instantly check for full text availability from UWA and present you with the best and fastest link to download the PDF, view the article, or put in a Get It request.

 

LibKey also activates a helpful message on some selected websites, such as newspapers, to assist you to access UWA Library’s full text subscription through OneSearch.
