Google Scholar is a direct&nbsp;descendent of these technologies foreseen by Kilgour.&nbsp;Google Scholar holds promise as a means for libraries&nbsp;to expand their reach to new user communities, and to&nbsp;enable libraries to provide quality resources to users during their online search process.</p> ER -
