Literature Review___Locating your sources: Google Scholar
For articles and proceedings papers Google Scholar is indeed your one stop shop for a good literature review; you really need to look no further! Sometimes GS even gives you direct download links to pdfs that the author has uploaded or that the publisher has provided, so you really can end up being very quickly done with your search. However alas, providing links on GS is not standard practice, most publishers prohibit this since the idea is to get paid subscriptions in order to view the texts. Notable exceptions are so-called Open Access publications that enable unrestricted online perusal of peer-reviewed academic journal articles. Nevertheless, most journals still adhere to the closed system and consequently most texts that you find on Google Scholar will not have the download links next to them.
The good news is that our university has a truly remarkable database through which we are subscribed to most academic publications. Thus, when you are logged in from the campus, almost all texts on Google Scholar will have download links that say "available from sabanciuniv.edu." Click on those and you will automatically be taken to the pdf itself, and if not, then to the correct page on the uni database, from where the text is only one click away. You can also do this from home by installing a macro on your computer that allows you to do so. I have never been smart enough to do this, but try it by all means.
