| If you work at a public service point in your library, and you know a little about web searching and are ready to turn your search skills into web strategies, then this hands-on workshop is for you. You’ll learn about, and practice, skills that will help you search the web faster and easier in everyday reference situations. You’ll also learn how to match each user to the correct search tool, how to develop an online reference collection and how to create an action plan to get you started when you go back to your library. | |
