Searching Google Scholar – PennState University Libraries
Tip
Although you could go directly to Google Scholar, use the search box above instead. This is the most reliable way to make sure you will see the “Get it! @ Penn State” link.
You can also link your Google account to Penn State, so the “Get it! @ Penn State” links will always appear – even if you don’t start your search from this page. To do this, enter Pennsylvania State University in this form.
