Do you know whether this opportunity will apply to Google's main Search product, to Scholar, or to other products?

Subject: [lis-e-resources] ScienceDirect and Google
Hi all,
Last week, I received an e-mail informing me that our ScienceDirect
holdings will soon be searchable via Google unless I opt out. Part of
thinks this is quite a helpful feature. However, the part of me that has
spent over a decade telling people not to use Google to find academic
information wants to say "not a chance" to Elsevier.
Does anyone else have any strong opinions on this? Has anyone opted out
and if now, are you promoting this new feature?
Many thanks.
Best wishes,
Sarah
