Getting the Most Out of Google Scholar Online

Google Scholar offers several powerful features that scholars may not be familiar with.

By the end of this workshop, attendees will be able to:

• Understand the strengths and limitations of Google Scholar
• Personalize Google Scholar accounts by creating alerts, claiming an author profile, and linking to WVU Libraries holdings
• Apply advanced search techniques for creating focused search strategies in Google Scholar
