Q: What does it mean when I see the word “Embargo” following a journal title?
A: “Embargo” is imposed by some journal publishers. This indicates that articles are not available electronically through this institution’s subscription for a period of time after publication. The embargo period varies among journal publishers and journals. Embargo periods are usually 6 months, 12 months, or 18 months after print publication. Contact your librarian for newer articles.

A: Log in to CALiO. Click on the Registered CAC and Chapter Access section. Click on the CANDID section. Contact a librarian to obtain the login to the FDO. Use the FDO link provided on the CANDID page. Note: the password to this resource is changed annually in January.
