Abstract	More than 100 colleges and universities have arranged to give people using the Google Scholar search engine on their campuses more-direct access to library materials. Google Scholar is a free tool that searches scholarly materials on the Web and in academic databases. The new arrangements essentially let Google know which online databases the colleges subscribe to, as well as what is in their library catalogs, so that Google Scholar can point users to those campus resources. As a result, at participating colleges, a Google Scholar search result now includes direct links to online copies of works if the institution has purchased online access. The results also include data on printed works in a library's collection. To use the new service, people at participating colleges must select an option on Google Scholar that lets the system know they are on such a campus. (ERIC).
