True fact. When I have developed library catalogue sites, the only people who lost their minds when I removed 'Advanced search' were library workers. @andypriestner/1019744872427868160

To clarify: nowhere in this tweet do I say that advanced functions should be removed from search systems. Functions with niche uses for advanced research are important and there's nuanced discussions to be had about how and where they exist in systems, user-facing or not.

"lost their minds" is however patronising and ableist language and I apologise for that. 9am tweets are not good tweets.
