ProQuest Content Now Discoverable in Google Scholar



We are often greatly challenged to determine where information of interest to us can be found!  Because of this, websites or services that aggregate data from several sources can be quite useful to us.

A new and recent version of this where ProQuest content is available through Google Scholar is now alive.  Back in April, it was announced ProQuest to Open Content Through Google Scholar

Earlier this month, this effort went live, ProQuest Scholarly Content Now Discoverable in Google Scholar.

... The full text of its scholarly content – including journals and working papers – is now indexed in Google Scholar, enabling Google Scholar users to seamlessly discover and access their library’s ProQuest collections. Efficiency and productivity for both ProQuest and Google Scholar users is improved, while libraries benefit from increased usage for their subscribed collections...
 
Do know that in order to access any Proquest Content found in Google Scholar, you still will need to have access, typically via a University Library, to the appropriate ProQuest collection.

Did you make any neat finds?
