Duck Duck Go searches multiple search engines and doesn't track your online activities. That means there's less bias in your search results.
SweetSearch emphasizes high quality resources evaluated and approved by educators, librarians and research experts.
Refseek is an academic search engine for students and researchers.
Like Refseek, Google Scholar is intended for a scholarly audience. You won't need to wade through a mass of commercial sites, personal blogs and ads to find authoritative information using this search engine.
We acknowledge the Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first inhabitants of the nation and acknowledge Traditional Owners of the lands where our staff and students, live, learn and work.
