J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online Subscriber Help & Information:

Frequently Asked Questions about Institutional Subscriptions

1. My institution has a subscription to The Journal of Applied Poultry Research, but I'm not able to see the full text of articles. I'm prompted for a username and password. Why is this happening?

   When this happens, the IP address for your machine is not being recognized by our computer. This failure is caused by one of four things:

   Your institutional subscription has not yet been activated

   The person who "activated" the online subscription did not enter in all needed IP addresses for your institution

   The person who "activated" the online subscription does not realize that some subnets of your institution are routed through a proxy server

   Your institution did not purchase access to the online journal

   What should I do?

   1. Send us Feedback so we can begin to diagnose the problem.
   2. Talk to your librarian, and let them know you are having trouble.

2. My library subscribes to the paper The Journal of Applied Poultry Research, and I can't get access to it online. Why?

   Your institution either did not purchase a subscription to the online journal or it has not yet activated its institutional subscription to J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online. Subscribers to the paper journal do not receive access to the online journal, unless the online version is also purchased. Notify your library that you would like access to J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online, and encourage your librarian to activate the online subscription.

3. Who from my institution can access J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online?

   The subscription fee allows for unrestricted Internet access at one location. Any user connecting from an authorized computer on your institutional network will be allowed access to J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online.

4. What is an Institution?

   For the most part, an Institutional Subscription authorizes use at a localized site. A "site" is an organizational unit, and may be academic or nonacademic. For organizations located in more than one city, each city office is considered a different site. For organizations within the same city that are administered independently, each office is considered a different site.

   For example, each campus in the State University of New York system is considered a different site, and each branch or office of UpJohn Laboratories is considered a different site.

5. How will this work?

   When someone attempts to use J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online, our server checks to see if the requesting computer is within the list of internet IP address provided by a subscribing institution. If it is, the reader will be able to use all those services enabled for institutional readers. For institutional subscribers, there are no usernames or passwords to remember, and there is currently no limit on the number of readers from your institution who may access J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online simultaneously.

   If readers want to access J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online from computers that are not part of your institutional network (e.g., through dial-in or telnet through a commercial Internet service provider) they can do so only through a member subscription.

6. What subscription packages are available?

   Member Subscribers have access to:

   Tables of contents, abstracts, full text searching, full text display, document delivery, PDFs; links to Medline, GenBank, and ISI Web of Science; and the advantage of having password access to J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online from any computer connected to the Internet.

7. How can I tell if my institution has subscribed to J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online

   If your institution has a subscription, you'll automatically have access to the tables of contents, abstracts, full-text searching, full-text display, PDFs, and Medline and GenBank links. You'll also see a button at the top of the page confirming you're signed in as part of an institution.

8. Can my institution subscribe to the online version only?

   See [Cost] for details about subscription options.

9. Does the journal have a free back issues policy?

   See the list on HighWire for details.

10. How can I access the J. Appl. Poult. Res. Online if I am not an PSA member and I don't have access through an institutional subscription?

    If your institution does not subscribe, you can order the journal as an individual non-member.
