How can I use LibKey Link in Google Scholar for my NHS Organisation?

LibKey Link has been integrated into Google Scholar for all NHS organisations in England. This will allow NHS staff and students to access full-text articles from the national core content and local holdings in Google Scholar. It will reflect the holdings within HLM (link resolver) for your NHS organisation.

Using LibKey Link in Google Scholar

Go to Google Scholar
Go the menu option on the left hand side and select Settings
Select Library links from the settings options:
Enter the name of your organisation - the example below shows Health Education England, but type in the name of your organisation instead
Select the name of your organisation and then click the tick box to confirm the selection
Leave Open WorldCat selected and click Save .

Now when you search Google Scholar, your full text holdings will appear next to relevant articles. It will be displayed as "Full text @ My library"

Please advise your library users to follow this process when using Google Scholar to ensure that they have access to your full-text content.
