"Google Scholar" search engine: searches scholarly literature

   An FYI that may be of somewhat broad campus interest ... Google
today unveiled the first, ever-so-fledgling beta of a specialized
search engine for scholarly literature:

   http://scholar.google.com/

>Google Scholar enables you to search specifically for scholarly
>literature, including peer-reviewed papers, theses, books,
>preprints, abstracts and technical reports from all broad areas of
>research. Use Google Scholar to find articles from a wide variety of
>academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories
>and universities, as well as scholarly articles available across the
>web.

   See the "About" page at
<http://scholar.google.com/scholar/about.html> for information on
topics such as how to make additional content available for indexing,
and advice on how to cite materials found through this service.
