Advanced Search

Advanced Search is a way to refine a search further within Google. It asks specific questions about the search that help narrow down the sometimes millions of searches. To access Advanced Search is quite easy, there is simply a button that one can click just to the right of Google Search. Once inside Advanced Search there is a series of questions to get more information about what the searcher wants to learn. Some of the questions gain information about file type, date of publication, and some just involve adding more to the search.
