Research of the Week

If you use Google Scholar, try this tip to find full text: Look for full text links in the right column of your search results. Clicking on links in the center of the results page often lead to a journal publisher’s website where you’ll be asked to pay for the article. In the right column you’ll find links to open access resources and things that our libraries subscribe to. Look for “Full-text via SU Links”. If you’re searching Google Scholar from off-campus, you’ll need to adjust your settings prior to searching. Go to Google Scholar settings – Library Links – type in Syracuse University – save your settings.
