Google Books
Website:
http://books.google.com/
Search
a variety of books for keywords using Google Books. This website is a college
student’s best friend. While the whole book the student needs will not be
available online, if the book is in the database you can search the book for
keywords. It will generate a list of page numbers for you to see the keyword in
the text. No more searching through large textbooks without an index for hours
on end!
