Gale recently announced a partnership with Google that allows Google Apps for Education users to sign into Gale’s In Context databases using their Google credentials. Database content can then be saved into users’ Google Drive accounts and/or shared via Google Classroom. The Google sign-in button currently shows in Student Resources in Context, although the announcement mentions that similar functionality will roll out to other Gale products later this fall. The process is fairly straightforward, but a couple of tips for saving content to Drive once you’re signed in: 1. Save an article to Gale’s My Folder feature by clicking “Save” in the Tools menu 2. Locate saved articles by clicking the “More” menu in the header… 3. …and then “My Folder"
4. Select the desired articles from My Folder and click “Download" 5. When you choose “Save to Google Drive,” your selections will be added to a new Drive folder called Student Resources in Context.
Note that articles will NOT be saved in Gale’s My Folder section for future sessions.
