How to link WashU Libraries to Google Scholar

How to link WashU Libraries to Google Scholar – Google scholar provide two ways to make it easier to access the electronic and print resources in your library.

Library Links – Library links are article-level links to subscription full text for patrons affiliated with a library. This program works best for electronic resources, such as journal and conference articles.

Library Search –Library search offers links to book catalogs where the patron can check local availability of a book, or request a library loan. This program works best for print resources, such as textbooks and monographs.

Google Scholar can be helpful when you have a citation but are unsure how to access the work in our collections. Google Scholar provides a simple way to search for scholarly literature broadly. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts, and court opinions from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities, and other websites.

Researchers may receive an error message when using Google Scholar during busy semesters. If that occurs, follow the instructions on this Google Scholar FAQ or contact one of our librarians for assistance through the Ask Us page.
