Google Scholar Button - A Helpful Academic Edge Add-on

Google Scholar Button is an Edge add-on that equips browsers with a one-click feature to access Google Scholar. It helps in finding full text research papers on the web or university library, transitioning your queries from web search to Scholar, and formatting references in widely used citation styles. This tool provides the best results on-campus, but can also be configured for off-campus access through the settings. It even allows a comprehensive search for the US case law.
