Hi there, Alma universities are back to Google Scholar. Cheers, Wei From: Wei Xuan Sent: Friday, July 08, 2016 2:24 PM To: lib-virtual-ref(a)lists.umanitoba.ca Subject: Google Scholar problem Hi there, We are experiencing a problem with Google Scholar. Our Alma links don't show up. Ex Libris is working on fixing this. Sometime next week (their guess is Tuesday afternoon, based on past experience), it will be possible again to go to Google Scholar (https://scholar.google.com), in Settings define the library, search for articles, and get directly full-text resources. Our proxied google scholar is still good for the full-text access. https://scholar-google-com.uml.idm.oclc.org/ Have a good weekend.
