Connecting Google Scholar to Rider University

2. Click on Library Links.

 

 

 

 

3. Type in "Rider University Libraries" and click search.

 

 

 

4.  Rider University should appear checked, along with Open WorldCat - Library Search (searches over 10,000 Libraries Worldwide, including Rider).

 

 

5. In a list of your search results, you will be able to tell immediately whether Rider University Libraries has access to an item with the "Get It @ Rider University!" link.

 

6. When you click on the "Get it" link, you will be brought to the Rider University EasyPass page to authenticate yourself as a member of Rider University. Enter your Rider Key log on information. You will then be brought to the article.
