Most of us are familiar with the vast array of Gale products. As vendors continue to update and streamline their products to make them more user-friendly, Gale has started a roll-out of enhancements as well. Phase one was completed earlier this year, and phase two, which affects such law collections as The Making of Modern Law: American Civil Liberty and the U.S. Declassified Documents Online, is slated to roll out this month (as of this posting, the rest of The Making of Modern Law collections are still TBD). Enhancements in these roll-outs include improved search results (with better faceting and filtering); a new Explore panel to upgrade the search experience, with tools such as a “More Like This” article suggester; and updated product names — for example, LegalTrac received its upgrade in July 2019, and is now Gale OneFile: LegalTrac.
