Using Google Scholar To Search For Online Availability Of A Cited Article In Engineering Disciplines, Virginia A. Baldwin

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Libraries: Faculty Publications

Many published studies examine the effectiveness of Google Scholar (Scholar) as an index for scholarly articles. This paper analyzes the value of Scholar in finding and labeling online full text of articles using titles from the citations of engineering faculty publications. For the fields of engineering and the engineering colleges in the study, Scholar identified online access for 25% of the chemical engineering and 13% of the mechanical engineering citations. During the study the format that Scholar (which is in beta version) used to present the result set changed. This change now makes discovery of online access to full text …

Marketing Research As A Tool For Finding Library Users' Needs And Demands: Application Of Three Party Theory, Farzana Shafique

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Libraries are under pressure to justify their existence and funding through customer- or market-oriented services. This requires a shift from product or service orientation to customer or need orientation.

Students, library service provider, and administrators were included in data collection. Suggestions for new library services are included, based on the results of the survey, focus groups, and interviews.
