LibKey Nomad

LibKey Nomad is a browser extension that provides one click access to full text from the Library’s subscribed content as well as open access content. If no full text access is available to you, LibKey Nomad will link you to a document delivery request form.

If you don’t already have this extension installed on your WA Health PC, you can easily download and install it on your work or home computer from the following site:

  • When installing the browser extension select the institution - South and East Metropolitan Health Service (this will ensure that you link to the holdings of the SMHS & EMHS Library and Information Service)
  • To test that the installation is working correctly, go to the link below and look for the LibKey Nomad icon in the bottom left of your screen. 

On WA Health PCs you can access and manage your LibKey Nomad browser extension:

  • Click on the 3 dots in the top right corner of your browser window
  • Click on Extensions
  • Click on the 3 dots next to LibKey Nomad

If you have moved from another WA Health Service Provider, you may need to adjust your LibKey Nomad settings to align with the holdings of the SMHS & EMHS Library and Information Service

  • Follow the steps above to manage the extension
  • Under LibKey Nomad, click on Details > Extension Options
  • Select South and East Metropolitan Health Service from the Organization drop down list

On your home PC you will need to check the options for managing extensions for your particular web browser.

Browser extensions like LibKey Nomad will not be 100% effective

If LibKey Nomad does not link you to the full text of the article you require, you may still need to return to the Library's Journals A to Z listing to check for availability.

Note: Functionality conflicts may arise if you have both LibKey Nomad and EndNote Click browser extensions installed.
