HIT : HANDBOOK ON THE INTERNET

[Jan Adams <jadams@cesa10.k12.wi.us>]

LM-Netters,
Thank you for the recommendations for a good but inexpensive (@$10.00)
manual, handbook
or pamphlet on using the Internet.  Below are the responses.
***
Take a look at Jamie McKenzie's website.  There is a lot of information
about teaching teachers how to teach kids to research.  Go to
http://www.fno.org
***
There's a neat little book called Online!.  It spiral and about 4x8"
and 260 pages.
Subtitle is A Reference guide to using internet sources (2000 ed.). by
Harnack and
Kleppinger.  It's a handy little guide.  It was recommended at our
annual conference, I
bought it, and brought it home this summer to study/lookat/become
familiar with.  Some
other librarians that I know raved about it.
***
Take a look at The Internet: The Rough Guide 2000 by Angus J. Kennedy,
ISBN 1858284422 @ $9.95.  It's a pocket-sized guide that explains the
ins and outs in clear, concise language.
***
I have always liked the manuals published by Que.  They are written is
simplified context, and are easy to follow,
enjoyable to read through, and not intimidating at all. The lingo and
jargon is not there. It is written in language your most
inexperienced user would understand.
