UNCC LRC I-Tech Showcase: Google Scholar for Humanities Researchers

The Language Resource Center at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte hosted this Instructional Technology Showcase on November 30, 2006. Donna Gunter, UNC Charlotte Instructional Services Librarian, presents Google Scholar features that humanities faculty will find useful for their research. Ms. Gunter demonstrated how to access, set up, and use Google Scholar and provided tips for effective searching. She also explained how to use Google Scholar from the UNCC library website and from home. Google Scholar (GS) is a freely-accessible web search engine that indexes the full-text of scholarly literature across an array of publishing formats and disciplines. Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: peer-reviewed papers, theses, books, abstracts and full-text articles, from academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories, universities and other scholarly organizations.
