Research is best done from a variety of databases, and the library is a reliable source which data bases are paid for. When using Google Scholar, beware of “relevance” searches which rely on the number of links associated with the data base. This could be outdated over time. Documents may be sorted by dates as well, but it does limit the number of articles and also will display the results by when they were added, not when they were written. Furthermore, certain databases will not allow Google to flag the articles and will prevent it from showing up in the searches. Scientific research is extremely lucrative among editors and peer reviewers in order to improve research. Predatory journals do exist and are not verified and may show up in Google Scholar.
