Link Google Scholar to Library Resources

Researchers use Google Scholar for locating extremely recent research, identifying materials outside a discipline, and full-text deep discovery.  These types of searches complement subscription-based research tools provided by the library such as PsycInfo, ERIC and HeinOnline.

It is possible to link Hewes Library full text subscriptions to Google Scholar results, thus increasing full text access to resources.  The easy, three-step process is outlined on this Google Scholar research guide:
