If you use Google Drive, you may have noticed "Starred" in your document list on the left side of the screen.
Starred items provide a way for you to access files quickly, without having to search.

However, Google is also less careful in what it includes in search results than are more curated subscription based, academic databases such as Scopus and Web of Science , so it is worth making your own assessment of the credibility of the resources linked through Google Scholar. One advantage of using Google Scholar is that the interface is comforting and familiar to anyone who uses Google.
This lowers the learning curve of finding scholarly information. There are a number of useful differences from a regular Google search, such as. Although it is free to search in Google Scholar, most of the content is not freely available, but Google does its best to find copies of restricted articles in public repositories which often contain earlier drafts preprints.

Now that Google has re-introduced a way to block sites in Google , Google has determined you no longer need to star search results from the search results page.
This does not mean that you can no longer see stars in your Google search results.
