Press Release: Gale Expands Relationship with Google and Discovery Services
Google
Building on an existing effort, Gale will be enabling its full-text scholarly content -- roughly 2.5 million articles aggregated from thousands of scholarly publishers -- to be indexed by Google Scholar, a free search engine for scholarly research often used by students and instructors in higher education. Users beginning their research in Google Scholar will be able to discover content from Gale and its partners, and either be taken to the full-text of an article (if authenticated users of a subscribed library) or be directed to an abstract and information on how to access the article through their institution or local library. This integration helps researchers more easily discover Gale content and will bring more users directly into the library. In addition, Gale is making its content and technology more accessible and more easily integrated into student workflow in the classroom setting through Google Apps for Education.
