Install Find It! @NUS Libraries inGS Installation instructions http://libguides.nus.edu.sg/googlescholarlinks

After installing Find It! in GS Find IT! links appear on the right panel

Find It! @ NUSLibraries • After installing, clicking on Find It! @NUS Libraries button will: • automatically attempt to check against the subscriptions of NUS Libraries online holdings • if a match is found, you will get the full text directly. • However, there is no guarantee that clicking on the Find It! Link will definitely link you to the online item. • Reasons why this may not work: • NUS Libraries does not have access to the online item (but may or may not have the it in hard copy) • There is a technical issue preventing a successful link to the online item.

What if I land on a page that requires me to pay for full text? Solution: • Install the NUS proxy bookmarklet (libproxy1.nus.edu.sg) • Online instructions at http://libguides.nus.edu.sg/proxy_bookmarklet • On the page that requires payment, click on the bookmarklet that was earlier installed in your Favorites • The NUS proxy will be auto inserted into the URL of the required article • You can then access full texts via NUS Libraries subscriptions. Note: NUS Libraries do not have subscription to every online article. If for some reasons, the proxy bookmarklet method fails: • Check LINC to see if there is access via another online source or if a print copy is available.
