Google's next online learning conquest: Academic research - Elaine LaFay, Michigan Daily
Google has scanned more than one million books onto its site for worldwide availability since partnering with libraries and universities across the country, including the University of Michigan. The new software program intended to aid term paper writers and researchers nationwide will help students and professors know when Google has a book they're looking for by merging Google's catalog into online library search engines. The University of Texas at Austin is one of the first universities to integrate Google's catalog into its own. When students at UT type a title or author into the online catalog, they'll know whether the book is available online through Google.
