Finding Fulltext Articles using Google Scholar

Are you in a hurry and need to find some journal articles quickly? Did you know that you can use Google Scholar to search some of the databases that the Library subscribes to and find the fulltext of an article, if it is available?

It's easy. All you need to do is set Google Scholar preferences to recognise CSU Library. To find out how to do this, watch the following video tutorial.


But remember, Google Scholar is one way of doing a quick search for articles. Of course the most thorough way to search our databases is to visit our journal databases page and select your subject area. This will give you access to all of the databases in your subject area that the Library subscribes to.
