Presenter: Darcy Dapra, Partner Manager, Google Scholar
When: Tuesday, June 19, 11am Pacific / 2pm Eastern

Have you ever wondered how Google Scholar connects researchers with information? As Darcy will explain, it’s not just about robots and algorithms; it's really about people and words. Google has created a powerful academic discovery tool by cultivating partnerships with the people who use it: the students, faculty, researchers, and writers who are looking for scholarly resources, and the publishers, librarians, and institutional repository administrators who provide them.

In this webinar, Darcy will show you how you can work with Google Scholar to increase visibility for your repository and connect scholars with the resources they’re looking for.

On the agenda:

  • How indexing in Google Scholar works
  • What types of content are included
  • What you can do to improve your content’s visibility in Google Scholar searches
Darcy will also discuss best practices for collecting metadata, explore some use cases, and respond to your questions.

This is a great opportunity to hear firsthand from one of the people who makes Google Scholar work for the academic community!
