Google, the premiere Internet search engine, has a separate search feature from their main page called Google Scholar.

 
Google Screen - Scholar
     

Google Scholar allows you to search specifically for scholarly literature, including peer-reviewed articles, theses, books, preprints, abstracts and technical reports from all broad areas of research. This literature comes from a variety of publishers who have allowed Google to index their content.
