SEARCHING THE WEB IS THE ULTIMATE PARADOX: The Internet brings information tantalizingly close to us. At the same time, the sheer volume of information available on the Web can leave us more confused than ever. That's why we timidly stick with four or five familiar websites, for fear of venturing into dangerous, unfamiliar territory.
But then Information Guilt sets in. The more we realize what's out there, the worse we feel about not taking advantage of it.
Well, it's time to stop cowering in the digital corner. A Web search is a challenge, for sure. But if you go about it confidently, it can be an entertaining and rewarding experience rather than a frustrating one. Why not let us help?
There's so much out there. How do I know where to start?
At the risk of overly simplifying a truly complex process, searching the Web ultimately comes down to learning how to use search engines the right way.
What exactly is a search engine?
First, we should talk about the difference between search engines and directories. Most people use the term "search engine" to describe any site that looks for information. In fact, there are search engines (like Google) and directories (like Yahoo, which uses Google's search engine). Search engines send complicated algorithms (programs) called spiders that "crawl" the Web looking for information on websites. Directories use real, live human beings to categorize websites; users can then drill down into these manually indexed categories. For simplicity's sake, we'll use the term search engine loosely to describe both types of sites.

22. PSU Library--Focus On Faculty 2003
In many cases, they rely on the internet because it is the most familiar tool,and it seems too difficult to learn about searching other databases.

Focus on Faculty 2003
Facilitating Successful Student Research: Library Support for Student Learning Do you notice a dependence on random web resources rather than a focus on scholarly sources in student research? Do you wonder whether the web citations in student papers are valid or reliable sources of information? Students today face a vast array of information sources, with few skills in evaluating them. Many students are unable to differentiate between Library research databases and web search engines. Today's students need more help navigating the world of information than ever before. Come hear PSU Librarians discuss ways to support student research by developing effective research assignments, steering students to appropriate resources, and collaborating with librarians integrate library resources and services into your course. presenters: Jennifer Dorner Sharon Elteto, Elizabeth Howell
Let's Begin with Assumptions...
Assumptions About Student Knowledge of the Research Process and Library Resources
Students know the Library has a web page that provides access to a wide variety of
research tools
In fact, many students still think of the Library as a building, and do not associate it's resources and services with the Web. Students are often unaware that they have access to research databases, reference services, and the Library's catalog from anywhere on campus or from home. Students may believe that the only way they can search for articles from outside the Library is to search the internet, and perhaps even pay for articles via a commercial service.

While Google is still probably best know and most used, as we librarians continue to emphasize, no one search engine is going to get you access to everything. It's always good to know as much as you can about as many as you can so that you can take advantage of their strengths in particular circumstances. If you just don't have time to become familiar with all the search tools out there, you should at least pick several favorites and use them often enough to know their differences.

CLEVER SEARCHING ADDS VALUE TO VERITAS SUPPORT SITE VERITAS Software customers and content authors/editors have more powerful information at their fingertips now, due to S.L.I. Systems' intelligent search technology. VERITAS, the leading storage software company, had discovered that the initial search technology used on its support web site wasn't meeting its needs. VERITAS is constantly seeking ways to increase the value of its services in its commitment to become a "trusted advisor" to its customers and partners, and took action. Customers having the most difficulty finding the information they needed through searching were those who lacked experience with the product or were not familiar with the technical terms used in the documents in the Knowledge Base online document resource center. Also, support site visitors required knowledge of Boolean search techniques to unlock the power of the incumbent search technology. As a consequence, information that was relevant to the visitors searching was not ranked high enough in search results - or was missed completely. This increased the risk that searchers would not find the technical information they needed - a waste of the resources that VERITAS invested in creating and maintaining its extensive online Knowledge Base.

http://www.blakearchive.org/public/about/glance/
[See below for Getting Started with the Archive
Over the course of two centuries, respect for the prints, paintings, and poems of William Blake (1757-1827) has increased to a degree that would have astonished his contemporaries. Today both his poetry and visual art in several media are admired by a global audience. In the broadest terms, the William Blake Archive is a contemporary response to the needs of this dispersed and various audience of readers and viewers and to the corresponding needs of the collections where Blake's original works are currently held. A free site on the World Wide Web since 1996 ( http://www.blakearchive.org ), the Blake Archive was conceived as an international public resource that would provide unified access to major works of visual and literary art that are highly disparate, widely dispersed, and more and more often severely restricted as a result of their value, rarity, and extreme fragility. A growing number of contributors have given the Archive permission to include thousands of Blake's images and texts without fees. Through intensive collaboration between the editors and the Institute for Advanced Technology in the Humanities , the Archive has been able to achieve exceptionally high standards of site construction, digital reproduction, and

Press Reviews
'Vengerov played [Britten's Violin Concerto] with technical brilliance but also with a far-reaching emotional intensity that built to an overpoweringly tragic, nostalgic ending. Under the secure, empathetic command of Charles Dutoit, and well aware that something quite special was happening out front, the Orchestra was excellent.'
The Evening Standard 26 May 2004
Observer 9 May 2004
'The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra... has its share of gifted players... In Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade, the first violin becomes all but a soloist, embodying the role of the storyteller in lines of sinuous beauty. Clio Gould [RPO Leader] rose to the challenge, presenting a character both plaintive and seductive.'
Evening Standard 23 April 2004
'The wind section was in bracingly good form ... Orchestra and conductor were at their best in Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony, which they invested with an elemental fury.'
Evening Standard 31 March 2004
‘Gatti was able to shape a reading that gave a fresh look at this familiar work [Brahms’ Symphony No.1] … In this age of automatic standing ovations, the one accorded the Royal Philharmonic was well deserved.’

Lateral Thinking in Information Retrieval
Why Our Approach is Necessary
The human brain is divided into two halves as indicated below: The left-brain excels at sequential thinking where the desired outcome is achieved by following a logical sequence of actions. In contrast, the right brain is optimised for creativity where the desired outcome may require a degree of non-linear processing. Most people are familiar with searching highly structured data, typically in a relational database, where the query is very specific (e.g. find all invoices from Acme plc received during March 2002). This is classic left brain activity. Unfortunately, many people expect to search unstructured information in the same way and are often disappointed when the documents they expect to find are not returned. The problem is that unstructured data is highly variable in layout, terminology and style whilst the queries tend to be more difficult to define. Most information retrieval activity, and virtually all supporting information technology, is focussed on the requirements of the left brain which is most comfortable when searching with precision.

In its very short existence, Ixquick has also become one of the most popular metasearchers. This is because of some unique and interesting features. Ixquick searches 14 of the most familiar search engines and directories, returning "top 10" results from each engine searched. Every time the same site appears in one of the 12 search engines' "top 10" returns, it earns a star. (Sites can earn up to a maximum of six stars.) Those with the most stars are the most likely to be relevant to one's search. The format of the Ixquick interface is simple and clear; the search page appearance is clean and uncluttered. Ixquick has received praise for its efficient handling of Boolean operators and its ability to eliminate duplicates from the combined results list.

Role of Expert Searching in Health Sciences Libraries
Introduction
The nation's health sciences librarians must continue to play a significant role in the expert retrieval and evaluation of information in support of knowledge- and evidence-based clinical, scientific, and administrative decision making at all health institutions. The nation's health sciences librarians also have a responsibility to train future health sciences practitioners and other end-users in the best retrieval methods for knowledge-based practice, research, and lifelong learning, and to help them identify which information needs should be addressed by expert searchers. This policy statement:
  • defines expert searching and provides the background on the issue; articulates the role of health sciences librarians in the provision of expert searching; and

However, as easy as it appears at times, finding something on the Web can be a challenge. The two most common tools developed to help people find their way around the Web are Subject Indexes , some times called Directories , and Search Engines . Both have been around almost as long as the Web itself, and the development of both has created a small industry. Intense competition for Web traffic has caused creators of Web search tools to combine several search tools into one site with full service operations. These multi-service sites are commonly called Gateways and Portals , but I like to call them Internet Home Companions Yahoo , for example, began as a subject index, but it now includes a search engine, horoscopes, stock market advice, weather, chat rooms, and email services.

Workshop Overview Introduction to Searching American Memory combines a tour of the collections, including samples from the different media formats, with basic search strategies and tips for successful searching. Course Activities are designed to be self-help and self-paced, so educators can fit workshop activities into their own schedules. Periodically during the year, the workshop is offered online over three weeks, supplemented by discussions with Library facilitators. The course is divided into four parts:
  • getting to know American Memory and its features for finding information;
  • searching descriptive or bibliographic information;
  • searching the full text of documents; and
  • summarizing what you have learned. The majority of the workshop centers on the types of collections and the ways they may be searched. Objectives Participants will:
    • understand the general size and scope of American Memory collections; develop a working knowledge of the types of finding aids available in American Memory; and

    Fifty-seven Years of Searching Among Behaviorisms:
    a Memoir
    William S. Verplanck
    Knoxville, TN
    What I'm going to talk about is my own fifty-seven years of searching among behaviorisms. It will hence be difficult for me to avoid making this a reactional biography, a personal history. I necessarily restrict myself to my possibly idiosyncratic analysis of the various behaviorisms and behaviorists I've encountered through that period. I will begin and end with the same topic: the terminology that psychologists who are behaviorists use, which determines the data we gather, how we deal with them, and how we report them to others. At the University of Virginia In 1934, I took my first course in psychology at the University of Virginia. Woodworth's Psychology was the textbook; we had additional readings in Garrett's Great Experiments in Psychology . I was bothered by a discrepancy in how these two Columbia psychologists used the term "aptitude" and assumed that if I took a second course, I would learn what aptitudes really were: Psychologists, as scientists, surely would know. That was in '34-'35. (In '95, people still don't 'know,' except in terms of statistical analyses of how people answer selected questions.) So, I became a major in U.Va.'s Department of Psychology, with Frank Geldard as Chair and Dick (G. R.) Wendt as the only other member. Wendt, a Woodworth PhD, gave a full-year course on "social psychology." (The second time he gave it, he did not repeat himself.) Reflecting Woodworth's empiricism, he covered everything except the kitchen sink. For Dick, all behavior is the subject matter of psychologya doctrine I've never forgotten. Geldard, a product of Clark, a student of John Paul Nafe, and hence a grandson of Titchener, taught E. G. Boring's version of operationism and carried out experimental research on the cutaneous senses following the strict protocol of Titchenerian introspective structuralism.

    CUNY+ Databases Interlibrary Loans Full Text Journals ... Ask A Librarian
    CREATING ACCURATE SEARCH STATEMENTS
    Searching the CUNY+ , the bibliographic and full-text databases to which the Mina Rees Library subscribes, and Web search engines is easier if a researcher knows which techniques will create more results when the initial search proves too narrow or fewer results when it is too broad. To perform such searches, a researcher must be familiar with the most commonly used Boolean operators ( AND, OR , and NOT ) and with the other techniques explained below. AND specifies that all terms must be present in the record (the information retrieved):
      women and homelessness world war ii and japan and causes
    (Most electronic databases do not require capitalization of search terms.) AND narrows a search because the more terms you join with AND the fewer results you will receive. OR specifies that either term(s) appears in the record. It is often used with synonyms:
      oil or petroleum
    OR expands a search because the more terms you join with OR the more results you will receive. Because you cannot always know which term(s) a particular database will use to index the subject of your research, searching for synonyms and related terms is always a good idea when you need to expand a search.

    It was hard not to notice all the students dressed in business suits and skirts walking across campus this week. Sudarsan Ravi, a graduate IE major, talks to a company representative at the annual Career Fair. The fair was held in the Alexander Memorial Coliseum, with buses providing transportation from both sides of campus. The Coliseum was swarming with smartly-clad Tech students fishing for jobs and internships at the somewhat intimidating but insightful Career Fair Sept. 8 and 9. Bus loads of career-seeking students in black suits and leather shoes embarked on the journey toward life after Tech, and masses of students were looking at co-op and internship opportunities as well. The late morning scene at the entrance to the Coliseum was unusual. Students looked ready to take on the world with a resume in hand and a full business suit. Girls were spitting out gum and popping in a breath mint while guys were straightening out their ties and tucking in their shirts. "You get regular jitters for an interview, and presenting your best image is always a challenge," said Michael Turbe, a fourth year Aerospace Engineering major. He was one of the 3,000 people that showed up in hopeful spirits at the nation's largest student-organized college career fair.
