Researchers, serious people who are hunting for a specific piece of information, attend workshops and seminars on individual resources. They learn how to make one resource stand up and be counted.
How do you get the same sort of control over a search through Google? Trial and error, asking friends, posting queries on lists are ways to learn the ins and outs of Google searches.
Google has an Improve your Search Experience page. There you'll find hints and tips on getting exactly what you want from the world wide web.
Use the Tutorials, the Help Screens, the Ask Us links on every resource. Reinventing the wheel with each search seems counterproductive.
