DIT Library now in Google Scholar's Library Links

DIT Library now participates in Google Scholar’s Library Links. This links the databases and electronic journals to which we subscribe with Google Scholar. This means that you can now link with a single click to the full text of articles that you’ve found by doing a search in Google Scholar, once those articles are available via DIT Library’s subscriptions.

To locate full text electronic content available through DIT Library, you can use Google Scholar Library Links. To do this you will need to:

-Go to http://scholar.google.com/
-Click on Scholar Preferences
-Type DIT in the Library Links section and click Find Library
-Tick the box next to Dublin Institute of Technology – Find @ DIT
-Click Save Preferences

The Find @ DIT link next to an article citation in Google Scholar will bring you directly to the full text if the article is available via DIT Library's subscriptions.

For more information see Google Scholar’s Library Links page and Understanding a Search Result.
