  Short Description: Google scholar is a free online search engine that looks strictly for scholarly articles depending on the keywords entered in the search box. In other words, google scholar provides reliable articles related to the topic being researched. The types of sources that it provides includes peer-reviewed articles and books, dissertations, conference papers, and other scholarly literature. Therefore, this attempts to eliminate the unreliable sources that appear in a regular Google search.
  Examples of Use: The most common way that this is used is for academic research. Students can research a given topic and immediately find reliable sources rather than having to sort through pages of websites found in a Google search. This is also a good place to turn to if the article one is looking for is not found on another database (i.e. JSTOR). You even have the ability to link your academic credentials (i.e. Fairfield University login information) to Google Scholar so that articles will show that are in the databases Fairfield has access to. Overall, this has the ability to create one unified search engine for any scholarly information students might need. It can take away all the guesswork out of student's research.
