Cool Search Engines
Google Scholar-Using the normal Google search engine, you can retrieve all sorts of information – some reliable, some less so. Google Scholar allows you to have more confidence in your results by searching the scholarly literature across many disciplines and sources: peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, abstracts and articles.
PubMed-PubMed is used by researchers in the life sciences to scan the scientific literature, and allows you to search by topic, author, or journal. The results list is linked to the article abstracts; if the complete article is freely available or if you have a subscription to the journal it is published in, you can link to the article.
The amount of information can be dismaying, so try narrowing the search by clicking on the ‘Limits’ tab to enter a more specific search. For an introduction to a topic, select ‘Reviews’ from the ‘Type of Article’ list; you then only retrieve articles that give an overview of your selected topic. You can also limit the search to articles that are freely available (choose ‘Links to free full text’).
