Why Not Just Use Google Scholar?
Of course you can! In fact, here's a direct link to it to show that we don't hate it. But since Google Scholar includes everything in one big bucket, it is a very blunt instrument if you use it to search for subjects or topics--for those kinds of searches see the tips on the Power Searching page in this guide.
Google Scholar is fantastic for quickly finding who else has cited any given article. I also recommend it to quickly locate the full text of a specific article, or to find an item in our library catalog, IUCAT.
TIP: If you do use Google Scholar, make sure your Scholar settings include a library link to Indiana University - Bloomington -- IU-Link, which will connect you to resources available to IU users.The search box above already has these settings. Check out the Use Google Scholar Like a Pro video guide on this page.
