Hi guys, In preparing to write an article and present a workshop on search engines I discovered some excellent resources: Look into a wonderful new book, now one of my bibles: Web Search Strategies by Bryan Pfaffenberger, MIS Press 1-55828-470-2 It compares the search engines by factors important to librarians: Boolean, proximity, relevancy, output. It is a must for your collections. Also the May issue of Internet World p.40 and p.79 and the April 29th issue of US News p.60 had excellent search engine articles. I think it is interesting that the general public is finally beginning to appreciate the need for search strategy!
