PHC101 Research Skills Guide: Use Google Scholar

Using Google Scholar

Google Scholar allows you to locate resources such as articles, theses and books.

Unlike Primo Search, which is set to search the Library's holdings only, Google Scholar searches beyond Charles Sturt University Library and will include resources that are not available to you.

Set up Library Links to access the Library's online resources using these instructions.

Activity

In the adjacent Google Scholar Search box, enter some keywords that you identified in your topic analysis, such as paramedic* AND "mental health"

  • Use the left hand menu to limit by date.
  • Have you set your library links as above?
  • Look for the Find it at CSU links to the right of each resource's title – if they are present the Library has that item and you can use this link to access it via CSU Library's subscriptions and holdings.
  • You may also be able to access freely available resources via your Google Scholar search as well as CSU holdings. To identify these, follow the location links that may appear to the right of each resources title. e.g [PDF] nursingworld.org
