Google Scholar is a search engine that provides links to full-text articles to which the Kaufman Library subscribes and to articles made freely available by the publisher. Scholar also provides articles from academic publishers, professional societies, preprint repositories and scholarly articles posted on the web. In addition, many articles are available when the Kaufman Library has a subscription which would work with EZ Proxy. Finally, Scholar provides citations along with abstracts of the article if it is protected by copyright.
NOTE: Not everything in Google Scholar is scholarly or peer-reviwed. In addition to articles and books, search results can also include news announcements, presentations, and unpublished materials.
