Learn techniques for searching Google Scholar in 30 minutes! We will cover everything from ways to reduce irrelevant results to how to troubleshoot when Google says that you can't access a paper or book.

Recommended audience: Everyone

Learning outcomes:

  • Participants will build effective search statements by using search operators such as author, domain, intitle, intext, filetype and by nesting operators.
  • Participants will distinguish the limitations and usefulness of Google Scholar versus commercial databases.
  • Participants will easily move between Google Scholar and the library catalog to troubleshoot Google's results.
