Library databases:
The library's databases can be used to find all of the books, magazines, journals, videos and CDs that we have on the shelves in the school's library. There is also a search page to find resources in the library at KG University that you can borrow, and a way to download and access PDFs and e-books through our EBSCO and J-STOR databases. More information can be found on the school library's website, here.

図書館のデータベース
学校の図書館にある本、雑誌、ジャーナル、ビデオやCDは学校のデータベースで探し出すことができます。また、関西学院大学から借りることが出来る本や資料を探し出すためのページもあります。さらに、EBOSCOとJ-STORというデータベースでPDFや電子本をダウンロードすることも可能です。詳しくはここにある学校のウェブサイトをみてください。


Web-based databases:
One of the largest free online databases you can use to search for academic sources is Google Scholar. This provides a single search portal to access articles, research papers and books stored in universities, academic publishers, professional organisations and other similar websites.

Some of the sources are behind paywalls - that is, you need to pay a fee to download the full document, however if you find a resource you want to see, click on the 'All x versions' link to see if there are any other free html or PDF versions of the file available.

Advanced search:
Search engines like Google have indexes of around 30 trillion webpages, and if you type a single word into your search query you are likely to find that there are millions of web pages on the internet that include the word you are looking for. It would take years to look through all of those results, so a better and smarter way to search for something is to be more specific about what you want Google or Yahoo to find, and where you want them to look. Narrow your search, and you will find what you are looking for more quickly. Two ways of doing this are to use the 'Advanced Search' page, where you can fill in some extra boxes to provide extra details on what you are looking for (a particular year, for example), or to use some of the common search operators that do the same thing without having to fill in extra boxes.

Google's advanced search page can be found here:
http://www.google.com/advanced_search

A guide to the search operators you can use can be found here:

Advanced Search
Googleなどの検索エンジンには300億くらいのウェブページがあり、たった一つの言葉で検索しただけでも何万個おもその言葉を含むウェブページが出てきてしまいます。全部、目を通すまで時間がかかってしまうので、もっと検索する範囲をせばめ、GoogleやYahooに検索して欲しい項目、どのようなとこから探して欲しいのかを明確にする必要があります。これをするためには二つの方法があります。一つ目は「Advanced Search」のページで年など、多数の項目を記入して検索する方法で、二つ目の方法は多数の項目を記入しなくても良い検索コマンドを使う方法です。

GoogleのAdvanced Searchについて、詳しく知りたい方は以下のサイトにアクセスして下さい。http://www.google.com/advanced_search

Deep Web
The part of the World Wide Web that most people access via search engines such as Google, Yahoo, Bing, is known as the Surface web. It provides access to roughly 1% of all of the data which exists on the Internet. The rest is stored on servers in universities, in companies that do not want to openly share their files, and in government departments that are not commonly accessed by the public.

ディープウェブ
ディープウェブとはWorld Wide Webの90パーセント以上の情報が保管されているウェブのことです。ディープウェブを使う事でいろいろな知識や新しいアイデアが検索できます。それが出来るぐらいの情報が入っていることです。
