Download the PDF of the article and manually add it to your Mendeley citation. For the latter, i f the Library subscribes to the journal the article appears in, it will retrieve it through the Library's Citation Linker. If you want to add article PDFs to your Mendeley database, you will need locate them outside of Google Scholar. You may find links in the right column for each reference to the publisher site or, if you are working on-campus, to "Find Le Moyne Library". Alternate way is, to go to Mendeley app and click File and add using url option. Google Scholar does not include the full-text of the articles that it indexes. If not, click the paper inside Mendeley desktop app, then on the right hand side give you option to edit.

Consult the rules for the citation style you have been instructed to use so you know what is needed. To cite articles, you need at a minimum, the article's author(s), the article title, the journal it appeared in (the name may be abbreviated or not, depending on the database), the volume number, the issue number (usually), the year of publication, and the page numbers or document identifier if the journal doesn't use page numbers. Review each citation while you still have the citations up on the screen to more easily correct any errors after you import them into Mendeley. You may find errors or omissions in the citations. The citation quality in Google Scholar is highly variable and depends on the source of the citation.
