Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research.
Google Scholar allows users to affiliate with a university. Creating this affiliation allows people searching in Google Scholar to easily obtain the full text of articles and other electronic materials licensed by the university, generally by the university library. Once you have configured Google Scholar for affiliation with the University of Zululand, Google Scholar offers a link in the results list to UNIZULU's full-text for items that can be accessed via the UNIZULU Libraries. Off-campus access to these items is limited to current UNIZULU students, faculty, and staff. You will only need to select the UNIZULU library link in the Google Scholar settings once for each computer that you use.
