Google Scholar

Use Google Scholar to find scholarly papers including journal articles, conference papers, theses, technical reports and some ebooks. Google Scholar also has a good coverage of open access publications. 

Set up Google Scholar to link to Fulltext@QUT, to allow you to access the entire text of journal articles that are available through a QUT Library database.
The Fulltext@QUT link appears automatically when browsing Google Scholar on campus. To access this function when you're off-campus:

  1. Go to Google Scholar | Settings | Library Links
  2. Search for "QUT"
  3. Tick "Queensland University of Technology- Fulltext@QUT" and save.
