What's an embargo?

Frustrated because a link in Ejournals A-Z doesn’t take you to the most recent articles?
Explanation: The publisher has placed a restriction on access, called an “embargo period.” This means that the most recent articles are not yet available.* These embargo periods range from three months to a year or more depending on publisher policies.
* If you need the article now, you might be able to obtain this journal article through your Library’s Interlibrary Loan (ILLiad) Service.
Suggestion: Be sure and read availability dates that appear next to the access link for embargo period information. (Put on your glasses to read the fine print!) For example:
Nutrition bulletin

Academic Search Complete 2000 to present (Embargo: 1 year)
CINAHL Plus with Full Text (EBSCO Publishing) 2003 to present (Embargo: 1 year)
