How to use Google Scholar

About Google Scholar

Google Scholar is a robust search engine that indexes many different websites and databases containing scholarly articles and publications.  If you are looking for a journal article on a particular topic, Google Scholar is a great place to start. 

Google Scholar is different from Google in that it returns results as citations instead of web pages.  Users of Google Scholar can read select articles through Google Scholar or use these citations to find the articles through other sources, such the NYBG Library.

If you search Google Scholar when you are at NYBG you will have access to the electronic resources provided by the library.  This includes articles from databases such as JSTOR and BioOne.
