Ecology Articles in Google Scholar: "A few observations remain. Should libraries support access through GS? Libraries paying large sums for Biological Abstracts, Web of Science, and CSA databases may rightly believe their patrons should be pointed to these. Just as many biochemists have developed a habit of using PubMed despite a library's provision of expensive licensed databases, so might ecologists develop a habit of using Google Scholar. It exists within an environment they use daily, is easy to search, and often succeeds in providing a good-enough answer. The in-depth indexing may retrieve data not easily accessible through standard abstracting services. Since it will be used, the decisions libraries have to make are only in what ways and at what level we should support Google Scholar."
