Spiders and Worms and Crawlers, Oh My: Searching on the World Wide Web

Untangling the Web / .
(ReLIS:jul:juljbi:14968)

Abstract:

Searching on the world wide web can be confusing. A myriad of search engines exist, often with little or no documentation, and many of these search engines work differently from the standard commercial search engines we are used to using. The workshop will begin with a guided search exercise. At the completion of the exercise, participants will be given a detailed information packet containing information on all the material to be covered during the session. We will then describe and demonstrate the use of several representative web search engines, explain some of the differences between web search engines, provide guided exercises for hands-on participation, and answer questions from the audience. This workshop is aimed at librarians desiring to know how, when and why to search the Internet
