Google Scholar

A how-to guide on searching Google Scholar effectively.

Exporting Results

To export results from Google Scholar go to your library and select the label list you'd like to export. Once you have that list pulled up, you will see a button called Export All.  

 

A dropdown box will appear. Choose which ever option best works with your chosen citation manager. For Mendeley choose BibTeX or EndNote. For Zotero choose BibTeX.

Accessing the exportation list will depend on which method you have chosen. Endnote will go right to your downloads folder, while BibTeX will open a page of code that you can import. If you have any issues please contact a librarian. 

Citing Results

Citing your sources from Google Scholar is fairly straight forward. Under the article you wish to cite, next to the Label button, will be a quotation mark symbol and the word "Cite"

Click Cite - A new box will appear and will give you citations for MLA, APA, Chicago, Harvard, and Vancouver styles. Simply Copy/Paste or download to a citation manager by choosing from the list at the bottom of the box.
