A. I searched Google Scholar and found an article, Public perceptions of global warming: United States and international perspectives. This article has been made available as "a service to the academic community" through Open Access. However, it seems to only available because it is older than 4 years. This is a little disappointing in a situation where the current research is what everyone needs to access.
B. I entered the information from the Google Scholar citation into the Citation Finder form and changed small bits of information. The results were predictable in that without the correct citation information, the article did not appear. The time and detailed effort to maintain absolutly accurate links is obviously considerable.
C. I took a look at the citation and the OpenURLamd saw all the elements of the article's citation embedded in the URL. As we help students locate articles at the Reference Desk, it is so important that there be multiple sources to articles. Students are so grateful when they can get the articles full-text online.
D. Here is a fun article on hiking in the Santa Monica Mountains by Jaffe, Matthew. "California Eden: Hiking in the Santa Monica Mountains" Sunset 204.4 (2000):72-77.
