Google Scholar

Resultado de imagen para google academico gif

My favorite web page as an academic tool is Google academic. It is a website where you can find different texts of academic level. The search engine is fabulous.
 
I can filter by year, by author, by type of texts. It really has given me a great help all these years of unversity. It is also a unified search engine this means that it links most of the libraries, repository of academic journals. Also inside the search engine there is a tool, which is the citation which helps to quote the text in a very easy way and in the way you want.

Maybe something not very good that if you are not specific in the subject the search engine gives you a lot of information in general and it is difficult to classify.

Also Google Scholar allows you to set up an author profile and track the citations of published works. The search engine checks who quotes the works published by that author, and generates quotation graphs in their profile As the search engine updates that data, it also suggests the author the incorporation of co-authors, showing that information in the public profile.

  1. I didn't know any of the data that you wrote in the last paragraph! Very interesting, a very useful tool to know the reputation of the authors.
