How to Access Library Resources Remotely

If you use the links on our A to Z Databases list or through records in the CONSORT catalog, they should be set up to prompt you to authenticate with your College of Wooster email log in information (don't include @wooster.edu).  This should meet your needs for conducting research from off-campus.  If you encounter a resource that doesn't authenticate you, please contact Mark Gooch (330-263- 2522) or call the Library's main number (330-263-2493) and ask for the Research Help Desk.

Setting Up Google Scholar to Check for College of Wooster Holdings

1. Go to Google Scholar: http://scholar.google.com/
2. In the upper, right-hand corner click settings.
3. In the left-hand column, click Library Links.
4. In the search box, type ohiolink.
5. Check the appropriate boxes (College of Wooster, OhioLINK, as well as Open WorldCat).
6. Click Save

After doing a search in Google Scholar, the "Find It" link will usually be over in the right-hand portion of the results.  Click it to search Wooster's holdings.  If there is no "Find It" link, sometimes it will be located under "More" beneath the article info.
