Bonus Tip: Google Scholar

WHY: Most of us use Google from time to time, and for getting broad ideas on research topics and browsing key words that's fine. But Google has one main objective: to sell you articles. So if you want to use Google Scholar, link it to your SJSU library account so you can always find what Google brings up for free and never pay for another article again! 

Steps: 

1. From the library home page click databases

2. Go to the G's

3. Click on Google Scholar

4. Type in your search

5. Notice on the right hand side it says "Find It @ SJSU"

6. Click the "Find It @ SJSU" to find that resource through the library and never pay for an articel again!
