Google Scholar is a commercial and freely accessible search engine specialised in scholarly information. When using Google Scholar, it’s good to remember that the search results are always ranked based on, for example, user’s previous searches, available links, commercial interests and website’s download speed.

Adding Library Links to Google Scholar

• You might not be able to open all the resources found with Google Scholar.
• If you are using Google Scholar outside the university’s network, you should add the library link of the Turku University Library in the settings.
• Changing the settings can look different depending on the browser and language settings.
• You can add the library link from Settings – Library links. Write 'Turku' in the search box and choose Turku University Library from the list.
• Click Save when you’re done.

After this, there’s a link on the right-hand side of the results list. By clicking on it you can check whether the resource is available in the library’s subscription-based databases.
