work better for me?
Google Scholar is a great tool for getting a broad view of what’s been published on a topic—including research that may not be in our library’s databases. It’s perfect for discovery and finding open access articles, but never pay for an article—if you hit a paywall, just contact a librarian and we’ll get it for you, fast and free.
To get the most out of Google Scholar, connect it to our library in your own browser settings:
Go to scholar.google.com
Click the ☰ menu (top left) > Settings > Library Links
Type Southwestern College and check the box next to it
Click Save
This will show links to full-text articles that the library subscribes to—right in your search results.
Q: Why is JSTOR asking me to "Log in" in the upper right-hand corner when I get to that database?
Q: Why is JSTOR asking me to "Log in" in the upper right-hand corner when I get to that database?
If you see this "Log in" button (right side) when you go to JSTOR, don't worry. You already have access to all of the content in the database. This is just asking if you want to create a special account where you can save articles and access the AI research assistant. It is NOT tied to your SCID. Just follow the prompts to take advantage of this organizational offering, but it is purely optional.
