There are a few other personalizations you can make to Google Scholar.

Start by selecting the Settings button from the top of the Google Scholar screen.

• You can customize how your search results appear.
• If you use a specific citation management program like EndNote or RefWorks, you can select it here. You'll see an "Import to EndNote/etc" button under the citations in your results list instead of a generic "Cite" button.
• Select your language preferences. Choose to have Google text display in a language other than English, or choose to only show results from webpages written in other languages originally.
• Set up a "Library" page (see the  My Library tab)
