Use Google Scholar to access Tyndale Library full text Articles
How do I set this up?
It's really easy.
When you go to Google Scholar you choose "Scholar Preferences". (Access Scholarly preferences by clicking the wheel in the upper right corner.) Go to "Library Links" and type in "Tyndale University". Choose Tyndale as your home library. Once you do this, links to Tyndale full text will appear in your Google Scholar results. Your full text options in Google Scholar suddenly increase exponentially.
It is still recommended that you learn to use subject specific databases when doing detailed research because you can search with greater specificity. Google Scholar provides another option to cover a broad range of material.
