Overview

About Microsoft Academic Search

Microsoft Academic Search is an experimental research service developed by Microsoft Research to explore how scholars, scientists, students, and practitioners find academic content, researchers, institutions, and activities. Microsoft Academic Search indexes not only millions of academic publications, it also displays the key relationships between and among subjects, content, and authors, highlighting the critical links that help define scientific research. As is true of many research projects at Microsoft, this service is not intended to be a production Web site, and it will likely be taken offline when appropriate given the research goals of the project.
How Microsoft Academic Search differs from Bing

Bing is a comprehensive, general interest search engine. It includes scholarly content, but is by no means limited to it. In contrast, Microsoft Academic Search concentrates exclusively on scholarly materials. With Microsoft Academic Search, not only are all search results relevant to the research community, but search results also contain features uniquely geared toward this audience.
