An Update on Google SLOJ Inclusion of HeinOnline’s Law Journal Library Content
From HeinOnline Blog:
Shortly after releasing our blog post titled “HeinOnline or Google Scholar? Why You Should Start Your Research in HeinOnline First”, Google Scholar contacted us.? We want to take a moment to share with you some of the things that Google Scholar informed us of.
[W]ithout our knowledge or awareness, Google informed us that they created a whole new index just prior to launching the new Google Scholar search that includes legal opinions and journals.? Google indicated that they improved their indexing algorithms and subsequently rebuilt the index.? With this new index in place, Google Scholar now includes an additional 250,000 documents/sections/articles from HeinOnline?s Law Journal Library bringing the total number of documents indexed to 750,000.?
We still note, that this is not comprehensive of HeinOnline?s Law Journal Library, which is comprised of more than 1 million articles, notes, comments, reviews, legislation, cases, decisions, contents, editorials and other miscellaneous documents or sections.
