Search For Articles With Google Scholar


bar

The CUA library catalog and many of the article databases CUA subscribes to are accessible through Google Scholar.

If you are located on campus visit http://scholar.google.com and begin searching. If you are off campus you will need to set the preferences so that Google will show you the resources that CUA provides. Please go to http://scholar.google.com, beside the search box, click Scholar Preferences. Enter CUA in the text field next to Library Links then click on the Find Library button. Check the box in the front of our university name, then click Save Preferences in the lower right corner.

Within Google Scholar you may conduct searches by keyword, author and article title. There is also an advanced search with more options. In the result list, when you see Full-Text@CUA, that means we have access to the electronic copy for the article. Click on Full-Text@CUA , then click on the word Go under a database that is listed as having the full text. If the article is not available electronically or the result is a book you will see Resources@CUA. Click on Resources@CUA, then click on the word Go next to ALADIN Catalog (WRLC). This will search the catalog to see if the item is located at CUA or another WRLC school.

Google Scholar is good for conducting simple searches across a broad number of databases. For complex or in depth searching we recommend that you search individual databases through ALADIN. Also keep in mind that while many databases are represented on Google Scholar, those who do not participate in the SFX link resolver are not.
