Access and Pricing for Individuals

If you are associated with a university, hospital, or other major institution, you may already have access to one or more of APA's five databases. PsycINFO, PsycARTICLES, PsycBOOKS, PsycEXTRA, and PsycCRITIQUES, are all available through site licenses. If your institution does not currently have access, you may wish to talk to your librarian about getting a site license.

If you are not affiliated with an institution with access, APA offers economically priced access for members and non-members.
