Thank you Bram and Peter.  From your response, I'm now contemplating the value 
of a simple "Didn't find what you're looking for? Try Google Scholar [search 
box]" type line somewhere that makes sense.

There doesn't appear to be a scholar API, so you're either bound to 
screen-scraping the requests, or showing an iframe of scholar.

But Bram is spot on with passing "site:" to your search to get just your 
content.

Haven't tried it myself, but should be definitely doable.

Here's a service where you can generate a google scholar search box:
https://services.google.com/inquiry/scholar_email?hl=en

If you want to limit the search to the content of your own site, you'll have to 
pass the argument site:<<domain name>>

with kindest regards,

I know that DSpace can be configured to be indexed for searching with Google 
Scholar, but has anyone attempted to put a Google Scholar search box inside a 
DSpace theme?
Thanks,
