How can I connect Google Scholar to CapU Library?

Google Scholar allows you to look for scholarly, academic, peer-reviewed articles. 

If you add "Capilano University" in Google Scholar, under Settings > Library links, you'll know which paywalled articles are available through CapU Library subscriptions when you see CapU Connect to Full Text links on the right. You'll have to use that link to get access to the article.

Sample result:

Google Scholar is only an index. It does not contain the article itself. It may link to the article, if it is available freely online, or it may link to the CapU Library database copy of the article.

An Advanced Search interface allows you to specify author, journal title or date range.  You can also get email alerts when new articles matching your search terms are added to its collection.
