Google Scholar Indexing HeinOnline Journal Content

WisBlawg reports that you can now find law review article citations from HeinOnline mixed in with your Google Scholar search results.  HeinOnline is the "world's largest image-based legal research database" and it features a very large law journal library.  Because HeinOnline includes the older volumes of law reviews, it can be a more useful database for legal periodical research on certain topics than Lexis or Westlaw.  I ran a few test searches and found some HeinOnline articles in my Google Scholar search results.  Google Scholar will display the first page of the article only, but if you're logged on to the USF network and click the "Subscriber Access" link on the right-hand side of the page, you'll be logged on to HeinOnline automatically and will be able to access the article's full text in PDF format.

Isn't this great? I blogged about it also. I've noticed some major journals, like Yale Law Journal and Harvard Law Review, aren't entirely done yet. Apparently it will be by the end of this month.
