Google Scholar

Google Scholar Searching
https://scholar.google.com/
You will tend to find much more scholarly information when searching Google Scholar than "regular" Google.  You can also link the Mesa Community College Library  to Google Scholar so articles in our databases will come up through a Google Scholar search.  Watch this short video to see how!

Google Books

https://books.google.com/
Google Books provides a way to search the full-text of millions of scholarly volumes.  Don't fall for their sales-pitch, you can find many of these books at local libraries (like ours!). Watch this short video to see how.
