Good research resources other than google (1 Viewer)

[Hastur]

I don't know where else to put this, but I think it is important to get the word out on these resources:

www.refseek.com - Academic Resource Search. More than a billion sources: encyclopedia, monographies, magazines.

www.worldcat.org - a search for the contents of 20 thousand worldwide libraries. Find out where lies the nearest rare book you need.

https://link.springer.com - access to more than 10 million scientific documents: books, articles, research protocols.

www.bioline.org.br is a library of scientific bioscience journals published in developing countries.

http://repec.org - volunteers from 102 countries have collected almost 4 million publications on economics and related science.

www.science.gov is an American state search engine on 2200+ scientific sites. More than 200 million articles are indexed.

www.pdfdrive.com is the largest website for free download of books in PDF format. Claiming over 225 million names.

www.base-search.net is one of the most powerful researches on academic studies texts. More than 100 million scientific documents, 70% of them are free

Don't laugh but Wikipedia is good for the external links. My professor in College a history professor suggested using Wikipedia as it essentially puts a bunch of different links you can go to for further research. We could use wikipedia for that but not as the actual source if you get what I mean.

I've been using it that way for some time.  It also improves my searches by providing specific search tems.

It's Google but, specifying a Google search with a "site:" prefix is useful.

For example:  site:forums.footballguys.com 25,000

Best advice I was ever given too. I learned more about my work cited and proper research then the dumb classes they taught me in HS that was for that purpose. I got to college handed in a paper and got an F on the work cited part. Went to the professor and asked why. Told I did it wrong. When I explained to them this is how I was taught at my HS he told me to come to his office after Lunch and he would properly teach me the correct way. I did and he said go back and redo this work cited and I'm going to regrade this research paper for you. I'm not giving one of my students a bad grade for being taught something wrong I didn't know about.
