alphabetical list. Note there also is a View
complete list of journals option.
15
We have displayed the L journal list. Click on
the title for The Lancet. The green box notes
access to the contents of the journal for you

access (predominantly Band 2 although some Band

For each article, there are three
options Abstract, Full Text or PDF formats.

You can get the article in Full Text or HTML
format that includes links to sections of the
article, bibliographic citations or related
articles.

With the PDF or Portable Document Format, you
will receive a scanned image of the article.
This format is similar to the traditional print
option . To download a PDF document, you will
need a copy of the Adobe Acrobat program which
can be download freely from the Adobe
website http//www.adobe.com
20
Full-text Article Access Problems Using the
Journals by title A-Z list, we are attempting
to access a full-text article from the Blood.
Although HINARI users should have access to this
journal, we will use this as an example of what
could go wrong.
21

• Access problems can be caused by
• failure to properly LOGIN with the institution's
  User Name/Password
• technical problems at the Publisher's website
• 3) or problems with local systems (configuration
  of user institutions
• firewall, configuration of browser)  
• 4) the publisher has not authorized access
  mostly for Band 2 countries

Consequently, you may see a message on the
Publisher denying access and requesting LOGIN or
payment for the specific article. Note Your
HINARI institutional User Name/Password will
NOT work.
22
To confirm that you have used the institutional
User Name and Password correctly, check that you
have the You are logged in message. This also
is confirmed in the address or URL search box of
the web browser. If properly authenticated,
you will see a URL that begins with http//hinar
i-gw.who.int/whalecom...
23
Double check that you have completed the HINARI
LOGIN.  If this is not the problem, notify HINARI
staff (hinari_at_who.int) so that they can
communicate with the Publisher and resolve the
problem. Note make sure you include your
institutional User Name, the name of the
journal(s) and other details.
