Google search for scholars

[Colin Dunstan]

Google Scholar enables you to search specifically for scholarly literature, including peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, preprints, abstracts and technical reports from all broad areas of research. Use Google Scholar to find articles from a wide variety of academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories and universities, as well as scholarly articles available across the web.

You know the nicest thing about Google Scholar is that for many citations, you’ll find a direct link to other articles in the Google Scholar database that cite the article you’ve selected. This makes it an excellent free research tool.
