Keeping up with Google Scholar: Legal Materials and Patents

Monday March 22, 1-2 p.m.
Gumberg Library 408

Presenters: Kathryn Fowler Instruction Librarian, & Ted Bergfelt, Reference Librarian

Google Scholar is still in beta testing but has recently added the ability to search for and read the full text of opinions from U. S. federal and state district, appellate and supreme courts. Citations to articles in law journals can also be searched. Along with these legal materials, patents can be
searched as well. Come spend an hour reviewing the basics and exporing these new features.

Reservations are recommended but not required. Contact Lisa Sciulli at sciullie@duq.edu or 412.396.5346 to register.
