Besides the link to each relevant scholarly article and a brief description of its contents the Google Scholar search results page also offers links to cite the article in commonly accepted formats such as MLA and APA. You can also save articles to a virtual library to read or cite later. Another useful feature of Google Scholar is the related articles link which allows you to search for content similar to the current search result.
Google Scholar is a great tool for academic research and a useful tool for escaping generic search results. The next time you have a research project give it a try to see for yourself.
