One of my other professors set up this lab session to help us learn and try to find information for a research prostpectus that we have to do. One thing i learned was that google has a lot books available for you to read. i knew that places like amazon.com had preview buttons so you can look at a few pages before you buy, but i didn't realize that google had done this. Most books you do have to pay for the view the whole thing, but its still pretty cool.
Another cool thing is google scholar. it is a way to narrow google's focus to be on scholarly websites and articles rather than sites that lay people update and put information on, which may or may not be true. While you still need to be carveul with where you get informatio from it is a great help in weeding out "bad" sites
Where is everyone.....

I never tried google scholar, but I guess it probably is a good thing to try. Google is pretty good with everything that they have available for people, so I imagine this is no joke.
