[Wactclc-alma] Linking to Google Scholar

[Tammy Siebenberg]

Wade,

Today, I've followed the instructions you gave below to create our Google Publishing Profile in Alma.  I hope I did it correctly.

Now I'm trying to fix YVC's links in Google Scholar that were created before we moved to Alma.  We were using Voyager and also used SFX and had an old library website URL, too.  When I try to link to our library in Google Scholar I get two options, neither of which work correctly at this time:

Yakima Valley Community College - Raymond Library - Get it at YVCC Library
YAKIMA VALLEY COLLEGE - ProQuest Fulltext

Google Scholar's instructions to libraries<https://scholar.google.com/intl/en/scholar/libraries.html> says the following:

Please also contact your vendor if you need to make changes to your registration, or to remove it entirely. E.g., if you're moving to a different product, you will need to ask the old vendor to remove your old record, and ask the new vendor to add a new record for you. Once the vendor makes a change at their end, our automatic update process should normally pick it up within a week or two.

Do I submit a case to Ex Libris to get this done, since Voyager was also an Ex Libris product?

Tammy

Ian, good question.

And yes, you can publish to Google Scholar via Alma.

You just have to set up the Google Publishing Profile, under Resources / Publishing Profiles. (Probably something that Maryanne would take care of.)

It's a pretty simple setup, as described here:

https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/090Integrations_with_External_Systems/030Resource_Management/150Publishing_Electronic_Holdings_to_Google_Scholar

The OpenURL base you guys would use for LCC is:

https://sbctc-lowercolumbia.primo.exlibrisgroup.com/openurl/01STATEWA_LCCOL/01STATEWA_LCCOL:LCCOL?

And the campus IP ranges you specify would be the same as is used in EZProxy, for example.

Whenever you guys go to set up the profile, just hit me up if you have any questions.

I had one of our new faculty members ask if it would be possible to link our database articles to Google Scholar like some colleges and universities do. In my research to see if it's possible, I found we need an OpenURL compatible link resolver. One of the suggested products was SFX from Ex Libris. I haven't been able to get anything posted on the CLAMS listserv, and since it was an Ex Libris product, I thought I'd ask here if anyone in the system uses it or something similar and if anyone does the Google Scholar linking.
