Internet Resources to Facilitate Research
- WorldCat: A searchable catalogue of books in world libraries, which you and your students can use to locate books locally.
- Google Scholar: A different incarnation of the Google search engine that returns reputable sources from scholarly journals, and citations of books and links to access books.
Google Scholar
- A visual guide for how to use Google Scholar is below. It consists of 5 images outlining the process. If you don't see 5 images, please reload the page. If you still don't see them, download this pdf. There is also a text-based guide to Google Scholar here.
- I teach my students how to use Google Scholar using this activity.
