Exploring Google to Enhance Reference Services
Jia, Peijun
Community & Junior College Libraries, v17 n1 p23-30 2011
Google is currently recognized as the world's most powerful search engine. Google is so powerful and intuitive that one does not need to possess many skills to use it. However, Google is more than just simple search. For those who have special search skills and know Google's superior search features, it becomes an extraordinary tool. To understand Google and use it to its full potential, one needs to fine-tune search skills and explore its features. For those familiar with Google's appropriate attributes, zeroing into the exact target may be accomplished in one hit--such is the efficiency of this highly underutilized engine.
