UWM Libraries e-journal holdings are now available within Google Scholar (http://scholar.google.com). UWM "Find It!" links appear in appropriate citations, providing links back to our e-article collections.
While on campus, anyone using the campus network, including wireless, will see the "Find It!" links in Scholar citations when the articles are available.
Off-campus users need to open the “Scholar Preferences” link, type 'uwm' or 'milwaukee' in the 'Find Library' box, and select “University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee – Find It!". Two additional libraries may also be selected, so a suggested source is "Open WorldCat - Library Search.” Off-campus users will be directed to the UWM proxy server to login via their e-panther IDs.
Additionally, users may configure the Bibliography Manager to import citations directly into RefWorks, our web-based research tool that helps manage citations, create bibliographies, and import references from research databases. Formatting styles include APA, Chicago and MLA. (RefWorks workshops are offered several times a month; please check our workshops listings for times and locations.)
Google Scholar has emerged as a powerful resource for research, and the integration of Scholar with UWM's large collection of e-resources will be a major time-saver for students and faculty. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, abstracts and articles, from academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories, universities and other scholarly organizations.
