Google scholar search not automatically updating.

Tue, 11/10/2009 - 16:04 — abarenbe

Previously when running google scholar from the websearch bar it had correctly imported the references into the online search folder. Now instead it just brings up the Google scholar page but doesn't import the references.

Any ideas what i could be doing wrong?

I saw a topic about that on the forum a month or two ago, and seem to recall that this is because of a change in Google Scholar -- PubMed still works as it used to.

What I find to work VERY well now is use Google Scholar from my stand-alone browser, and just click EndNote links for the references I was to collect (or the BibTex link if you are working with that -- you can pick your preference from a link near the top of the Google page, and Google will remember it).

A difficulty I have with the Google page in Biblioscape is that if I need to do something in the reference list (e.g. pick a different folder to save a citation) I have to leave the Google page. But I haven't figured out how to get back to where I was in the search, and have start the search over again. But that is not a problem for me, because using the stand-alone browser works very slick.
