This book builds upon the authors' previous well-respected book,
Going Beyond Google, which placed teaching the Invisible Web into
information literacy programs. Going Beyond Google Again expands on
the teaching foundation laid in the first book and continues to
document the Invisible Web's existence and evolution, and suggests
ways of teaching students to use it. The new book focuses on events
and materials from the 4 years.
Most students faced with writing a research paper probably start at
the same place--Google. Here's a cutting-edge guide that will save
your students from fruitless, random web searching. Arlene
Quartiello, formerly an academic librarian who now teaches college
English, and Jane Devine, coauthor of Going Beyond Google, provide
up-to-date guidance for using traditional and online sources.
Students will learn to select a topic, effectively find and
evaluate the best information in both print and electronic formats,
and produce accurate and complete citations based on current
versions of important styles guides and web resources. Each chapter
includes exercises that reinforce the instruction and guidance. A
companion website accompanies this new edition to give readers hot
links for all of the book's URLs, and supplementary materials
including additional exercises and examples that help clarify how
to apply the techniques. Written in an easy, breezy style and
filled with real-world examples, illustrative diagrams, and screen
shots, this is the ideal guide for anyone aspiring to write an
excellent research paper on their own or following this text in a
research skills or information literacy course. Instructors:

opportunities wherever they occur.
