CUTTING-EDGE INTERNET SEARCH TECHNIQUES
11 May 2004, Aston University, Birmingham

Efficient searching of the Internet can be invaluable when dealing with enquiries. Simply entering a few keywords, or juggling a string of Boolean algebra in your favourite search engine, can sometimes produce just what you need to give a good answer. 

However, on those occasions when you end up with absolutely no hits, or, worse still, thousands of apparently useless results, it can be extremely frustrating.     

BENEFITS FROM ATTENDING
This workshop is designed to help you use the Internet as effectively and efficiently as possible when dealing with enquiries. During the day participants will look at the latest thinking on searching the Internet. Practical examples and "hands on" approaches will reveal the nature of the Internet, and help participants discover the most appropriate ways to find relevant materials.

BY THE END OF THE WORKSHOP PARTICIPANTS WILL HAVE:
* in-depth knowledge of the World Wide Web, the invisible web and the human web
* the ability to choose appropriate search engines and other discovery tools
* templates to help with advanced search strategies
* a set of URLs to keep them updated on advances in search techniques
* "hands on" experience of trying out some cutting edge techniques

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This is for those who have been using the Internet to answer enquiries for at least two years. Participants must understand the basic mechanics of using the net, and have some experiences of the joys and disappointments of searching.

SPECIAL NOTES:
Each delegate will have access to their own personal computer so that they can practice searching techniques during the day.

WORKSHOP LEADER: Terry Kendrick
A daily user of the Internet, Terry originally trained as a librarian and worked in reference libraries. He is now an information and marketing planning consultant, and is CILIP's trainer for the Net Navigator and Information Consultant components of the NOF funded Advanced Roles IT training.
