Scholar Utility Belt

Scholar Utility Belt adds productivity tools and quality signals to Google Scholar search results and author profiles. All features are optional and can be turned on or off in the extension options.

Filtering & Search

* Result filter dropdown — Filter by year range, venue keyword, minimum citations, author match, and “Has PDF.” Year filters use Scholar’s server-side parameters and apply across all pages. Venue, citations, author, and PDF filters run on the current page and are remembered across pagination.

* Load more pages — Automatically fetch and append the next result pages into the current view so filtered matches appear without clicking through many pages. Year filters already work across pages; this is for venue, citations, author, and PDF filters.

* Keyword highlights — Highlight custom search terms in results (e.g. MFA, phishing, LLM).

Search syntax highlighting — Color-code phrases, AND/OR/NOT, and author: operators in the search box.
