 Hello everyone, this is Abby from Western Libraries. In this tutorial today I'm going to show you how to connect your Google Scholar account to Western Library resources so that you never have to pay for any scholarly information you find online. So starting at Google, you'll want to navigate to Google Scholar, scholar.google. Google has a version of its search engine which leaves out irrelevant results like YouTube videos, blog posts, and the like. It's a pretty handy place to start searching for basic research questions and topics such as mycorrhizal fungi. As is common to many databases, you can see that search results list contains a number of scholarly articles. Some of these are freely available and open access online. Others are not a mere behind pretty significant paywalls. So to connect this Google Scholar search within this Chrome web browser and others is to go to the three bars on the top left, choose settings, and here they've made it pretty easy for you with library links. If you are not on Western's campus or this is the first time that you are connecting Google Scholar to Western Library resources from your personal computer, you will need to search for Western Washington University. Once you find it and enable it, you can now see that the same search within Google Scholar yields results that suggest you can find it at Western Washington University. This link links you directly to library resources that again, the library pays for on your behalf as a student. So never pay for anything that you find online, particularly scholarly information.
