Still planning to use Google? You can install LibKey Nomad to turbocharge your Google and Google Scholar searches. LibKey Nomad is a browser extension that connects users with library-licensed and open access full text articles. When using LibKey Nomad, you will automatically be directed to the best available version of an article, so there is no need to search multiple places or pay for full text. When the full text is not available you will be provided with options to request the article through InterLibrary Loan (ILL).
LibKey Nomad will work in most academic publishers' websites and databases (ScienceDirect, Taylor & Francis, PubMed) as well as Google Scholar and Wikipedia's list of references when available.
