Google Scholar Advanced Search - LISTSERV 15.5 - MEDLIB-L ...

 The advanced search is the little arrow inside the search box, so while it is not gone it is, in fact, hidden and unlabeled so as to make it much less useful to the general searching population. It has become another piece to teach (until it is changed again, of course). It's not the best advanced search, but does allow some limits.  In response to this: "Advanced search no longer exists in Google Scholar that greatly limits the tools and tricks one can use in refining searches done in that all important tool.  If anyone has found a new hiding place for this advanced search, I would be delighted to know it.  On some Google search tools it used to be at the top of the search page, it is now at the bottom of many Google search tool pages, where it still exists."

Dillard" <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Fwd: Free Onine Course: Power Searching with Google  On this topic, I put together a list of some sources that teach Google searching techniques some time ago, so some of the links to websites may be dated.  Here is the link.  Tips and Guidance for Searching Google  Websites, Books, and Articles Providing Tips and Guidance for Searching Google  http://groups.google.com/g/27d7fdea/t/e1fd83697bf063db/d/7146f0e32277042e  Also Found At This URL:  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Net-Gold/message/25096   It also should be noted in this regard that it seems to me that Google searching tools change on an alarmingly regular basis and it also seems in many cases not for the better.  For example:  Quite a while ago, Google Uncle Sam was deleted from the world. One can go to advanced web search Google and limit to the domain gov or the domain mil to find search results limited to government sources.  Advanced search no longer exists in Google Scholar that greatly limits the tools and tricks one can use in refining searches done in that all important tool.  If anyone has found a new hiding place for this advanced search, I would be delighted to know it.  On some Google search tools it used to be at the top of the search page, it is now at the bottom of many Google search tool pages, where it still exists.  Google News Archive as a separate is not to be found.  One must conduct a search in Google News, then click on advanced search, then on "date added to Google News" and then on "In Archive" to see content from Google News that is not just in the current month or so.  In Google Books, on the "About this Book" web page for each book, the citation used to be at the top of the screen. It is now much more usefully placed at the bottom of the page to improve the physical fitness of the mouse arm.  Many books in Google Books no longer have a link for "Find in a Library"   The steady diet of change in the Googles almost makes it necessary to specify in training about Google, what month and year of Google the training provided applies to.  Hence for one step and out kind of searching, Summon at any subscribing institution and SCIRUS are good alternatives to or supplements to Google databases.  Perhaps Google search training seminars should be named "Searching Google du Jour".
