Google Scholar – Research Paper Resource
October 20th, 2005
If you do a lot of research on the web, you may have noticed links in Google’s search results to a new search engine – Google Scholar. Google Scholar is a search engine the searches only academic scholarship papers.
This is what Google says on its website:
Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, abstracts and articles, from academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories, universities and other scholarly organizations. Google Scholar helps you identify the most relevant research across the world of scholarly research.
I hope you’ve figured out by now how helpful this could be. Imagine how easy it will be to research your term paper by searching a database filled with scholarship! Instead of looking at title and skimming through pages of information, you will be able to use technology to save yourself time. Google even has a feature that allows you to check and see if the papers you find are available in your library.
Technology really is making research much simpler. Keep Google Scholar in mind next time you need to find some good references for your essay, book report, term paper, or research paper.
