Full summary
For GT students, by a GT student, GT Scholar facilitates accessing online journal articles. Two options are provided: proxying the entire google scholar search pages through GT library, and adding direct 'proxified' links to articles Unlike the "Find @ GT" option, GT Scholar links you directly to the journal's abstract page where you are typically one click away from the PDF. Additionally, and optionally, GT Scholar enables Chrome to save your username and password natively at gthe GT CAS Login page; a feature that GT Login disables by default. To further clarify, the extension itself doesn't store anything; it just makes a minor edit to the login page's HTML at the right time so that Chrome can offer to save the username/password.
