Enhanced search functionality on InfoTrac


When introduced, Gale PowerSearch, the InfoTrac user interface, offered the unprecedented ability to search millions of entries across multiple online resources with just one query. Since then, we've gathered feedback from Gale PowerSearch users like you. Now, based on that input, Gale is adding new search features — including Search Assist, search filters, additional limiters and enhanced relevancy.

  • Trending topics, suggested phrases and publication recommendations 
  • New sidebar with recommendations and limiters for every search 
  • Additional interface language translation options (Korean, Japanese and Simplified Chinese)

  • Translation of foreign language documents to English 
  • More intuitive advanced searching with search assist on the most used indexes
  • And more!
