Google Search Tool

Looking for another great reason to explore Google Docs?
Sure you can share, publish, work collaborative, BUT did you know you can also research and cite sources right from within Google Docs?

With a Google Doc open, go to the Tools menu and select Research:


You get a Research side bar where you can choose what type of resource you want to search for:


Even better you get to pick the type of resource: "Free to use" or Not  and the type of citation format: APA, MLA, and Chicago:


You can Preview, Cite, or Insert links directly into your document.  And Google handles the footnote/bibliography for you!
