Google Research Tool

Accessing The Research Tool

By: Edumedic

Here’s how to find the research tool from your document in Google Drive:

Select the Research option from the Tools menu.

You can use the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl + ⌘ + Shift + I on a Mac, Ctrl + Alt + Shift + I on a PC).

To find information relating to something specific you’re writing about, you can just type in the word or words into the research search bar on the right.

Alternatively, you can highlight the words in the text of the document, and use the keyboard shortcut or the research option from the tools menu as described above. The results will appear below the search bar.

If you select a particular search result, you get three options (as seen below): Preview, Insert Link, or Cite. Preview brings up a small box so you can preview the site it links to. Click on the site link at the top of the preview pane to open this page in a separate window, or click the arrow on the left edge to close the preview. Insert link, well, inserts a link into your text to that particular resource in the body of your text, and cite makes a footnote of the resource in the body of your text.

You can search specifically for the type of results you want. Images, tables, videos, quotations, citations, places, personal results, and dictionary results are some of the options.

Citations

You have the option to select a default format for citations added to your document.

To do this, click the drop-down arrow below the search bar, and select your desired format – MLA, APA, or Chicago.
