Using Google Scholar to access EUI Library Articles

The Library has enabled 'EUI Links' in Google Scholar to display full-text content for EUI members.

EUI users should set preferences in their browsers in order to enable full-text access to EUI Library-subscribed resources.

1. Go to http://scholar.google.com/
2. Expand the menu (upper left) and click on 'Settings'
3. Click on 'Library Links' in the expanded 'Settings' menu
4. ON-CAMPUS Users should automatically see an entry for 'European University Institute - EUI Links.' If the checkbox next to the entry is blank, click the box
5. OFF-CAMPUS Users should search for 'European University Institute' in the Library Links search box. Click the box for 'European University Institute - EUI Links'
6. Click Save.

Once Google Scholar has been configured, EUI users will see 'EUI Links' next to entries for full-text articles in EUI-subscribed journals. For example:

Tips on Using Google Scholar 

• If Google Scholar does not provide a complete citation (eg. if the date of publication is missing) the EUI Links service may be prevented from displaying EUI full-text options

• If an article in the Google Scholar results' list does not include an EUI Links' button, users should search the EUI Library Catalogue to see if a print version of the content is available

• Google Scholar does not direct to all scholarly literature. Some publishers and vendors do not allow Google Scholar to index their databases.
