Citation trails are links out from an article or book to lists of other articles or books. If you're interested in articles or books that are either cited in the one you're looking at, or are cited by other articles and books, you should look at citation trails.
The catalog now offers citation trail features for a small portion of article records now accessible via the catalog.
You can access the trail links from the item on the results page, or from within a record where it is available.

For journals available online you can search for articles within that journal under the "Search Inside" section of the item's details page.
Note that not all articles within that journal will be indexed. It’s more comprehensive to search for an article from the journal’s webpage itself, which you can do by following the "View Online'' links.
With the "Expand Results" tool, you can discover articles that NYU does not subscribe to, and therefore cannot provide full text access to the material. However, utilizing this tool can provide you citation information of possible resources that may be of help to you.
You can turn on this feature by navigating to the filter options, and turning on “Expand results beyond NYU & Consortium Collections.”
If I can’t access the material, why is this helpful?
This is helpful because you can make interlibrary loan requests directly from within the article's record.
