Google Scholar for Academic Research

On Campus

You can use Google Scholar to find the materials provided by the MSU Libraries. Google Scholar can be searched either on campus or from a remote location. When searching on campus, you will immediately see the results showing library resources. Just click on the link ("Find It@MSState Libraries") to the right of an article title.

Off Campus - Setting Library Links

If you are working off-campus, you need to set "library links" in Google Scholar to access the full text content through the MSU Libraries' subscription databases and journals. If you have installed VPN, you don't need this step.
