Google today launched a site dedicated to results that it says will help scientists and other academics get up-to-date research that may not be available at libraries. Searches on Scholar.google.com target academic, scientific and technical publications. The company worked with some scholarly publications to unlock content that is normally hidden from spiders by subscription barriers. Searchers will be able to see what content is available, but would have to subscribe to the site to gain access to the whole article.
