Task 15: Google Book Search and Google Scholar

Google Book Search is a interesting research tool to use. I used the Advanced Book Search and located a few books by Dan Brown written in Chinese. It is great that one can preview the books before purchasing them.
Google Scholar is great as a research tool for articles. I looked up the author, Maeve Binchy and found some recent articles and citations related to her. I also could look up which libraries hold her books . I found that option very useful. I will be using these tools from now on.
