Google Scholar and Google Book Search (Thing 15)

I have to say that I can see why a lot of people would love Google book search, books are my passion and my vice. However, I am never happier than when I am am in a physical, as opposed to virtual, bookshop seeing, feeling and smelling those books. I am notorious for giving books as gifts and when I go searching for the perfect gift for someone else I find myself coming home with a few for myself too!!! I worked in a bookshop for many years and I think I spent my entire wage on books AND for me, deciding to become a librarian had a lot to do with being able to work with all those wonderful books!
Google Scholar - I'm a fan! I've been using this for a while and have recently found some great material for a presentation/report/essay I need to do, and which I really need to get cracking on!
