COMPARISON OF LEXISNEXIS ACADEMIC AND GOOGLE

Both LexisNexis and Google both have their pros and cons . LexisNexis is much more straightforward and the results are much more accurate . Google will gives you unlimited results. There will be thousands, even millions of results to choose from. They give you a lot more variety. However, LexisNexis have limited results shown as compared to Google. Therefore, users will not be to have much more information about the things that they are searching . Not only that, Google give you a much more variety of results in a better ways like showing the pictures, websites, news, videos, maps, more option and search tools. This allows the users to choose the way that they want their results to be shown. The images options allows users to understand the results better. Not only that, users will be able to download the pictures as references also. Unlike LexisNexis, users are  not allow to download any images. If you are searching for a place, users will be able to click on the map options to find the exact location of the places that they want. Unlike LexisNexis, they did not inform the users where exactly they can get the book they want if they really want to have a copy of it. As long as the users type the correct keywords, he or she will just have to click on the more option at Google and they will list out 2 options. One is the book and another is the Apps. Users will just have to click on the book option and there will be a list of books shown for users to choose from . As for this, LexisNexis is much more organise although they required more information and Google will have  millions of results showing which may confuse the users and make the users loses their patience and confuse them. In conclusion, I personally thinks that Google is better as compared to LexisNexis as it has more variety for users to choose from and it is much more interesting.

DISADVANTAGES AND ADVANTAGES OF LEXIS-NEXIS ACADEMIC

Hi everyone!! How have you guys been? Today I am going to talk about Temasek Polytechnic's e-library. Have you ever feel like going out to borrow a book but you are just too lazy to do it and decided to just use e-library instead? There are a lot of different kinds of search features in the LexisNexis Academic located in the resources in Temasek Polytechnic student portal. It is a platform for users to find their books. From all the search features that I have used, I personally finds that the "Build your own Segment Search" is the more convenient and useful one. Why do I says so?? Firstly, when you have reached the main page of LexisNexis Academic you need to click on the advance option to redirect you to a list of search features and you will be able to find the "Build your own Segment Search" there.  The pros of this feature is that people will just have to key in the keyword that they want, a list of books that is related to the keywords will be shown. This is much for convenient for all users and at the same time, easier to get the books that the users want. It helps users to save time and also conserved their energy as they did not have to go out and search high and low in the library. The cons of this feature will be sometime they may have forgotten their keywords and there will be no results if the users key in the wrong segment.
