[DCRM-L] Authority work using Google Books

[Deborah J. Leslie]

I had no idea Google Books would be quite the boon it is in doing
authority work for older names. It's now possible to uncover sometimes
obscure sources rich in personal details. 

My question is about citing a print source that was consulted through
Google Books. Should we identify that as the medium in the 670? E.g.,

The gentleman's magazine, May 1855, via Google Books: p. <...>

OR 

The gentleman's magazine, May 1855: p. <...>
