Congratulations on your graduation from UT Southwestern Medical Center! As you start a new chapter in your professional career, most of you will have access to health sciences libraries and librarians in your new situations.
However, in case you do not, the Library has developed the Post-Graduation Library Toolkit, which offers helpful links to libraries and resources.
Elsevier Provides APC Discounts
The UTSW license agreement with Elsevier, which was negotiated through the Texas Library Coalition for United Action (TLCUA), included terms for providing discounts for article processing charges (APCs). As a reminder, the agreed discounts are as below:
Eligible Hybrid journals – 10%
Eligible Gold Open Access journals – 15%
Elsevier will begin applying discounts retroactively for APCs on articles published since July 1, 2022 – i.e., the start date for the APC discount program per our license agreement with Elsevier. For additional information on how refunds will be processed, please see the Elsevier APC Update Section.
Celebrating Our Nurses!

The Library has arranged for a trial of the LibKey.io resource during the month of May. This resource provides immediate full-text access to articles from databases like PubMed or resources like Wikipedia.
In addition, UT Southwestern users may download LibKey Nomad, a browser add-on that can be used anytime to identify the Library's full text and open access content, regardless of VPN access.
The Library is considering this product to enhance our current access, so we would appreciate hearing any feedback you may have about it, which may be provided through the LibKey Feedback Form.
Collecting UTSW’s historical records, in digital or physical format, ensures that they can be preserved and made accessible to researchers in the future. If you or your department has items that might be related to the history of UTSW, please reach out to archives@utsouthwestern.edu.
