BOOK EXCERPT:
Internet Research Skills is a clear, concise guide to effective online research for social science and humanities students. The first half of the book deals with publications online, devoting separate chapters to academic articles, books, official publications and news sources, which form the core secondary sources for social science research. The second half of the book deals with the open web, a vast and confusing realm of materials, many of which have no direct print counterpart. The Third Edition has been updated throughout and now includes coverage of cutting edge online services as well as newly developed approaches to using online materials. It also includes a new chapter on organizing your research and internet research methods.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Whether or not one believes the hyperbolic claims about the Internet being the biggest thing since the invention of the wheel, the Internet is a medium with great consequences for social and economic life. Doing Internet Research is written to help people discern in what ways it has commanded the public imagination, and the methodological issues that arise when one tries to study and understand the social processes occurring within the Internet. Each contributor to the volume offers original responses in the search for, and critique of, methods with which to study the Internet and the social, political, economic, artistic, communicative phenomena occurring within and around it. This book provides encouragement for readers getting started with Internet research and also provides perspective on this new and ubiquitous communication medium.

BOOK EXCERPT:
Hartman and Ackermann (both, Mary Washington College) offer a work on how to search for information on the Internet. They thoroughly overview Internet searching and discuss search tools and strategies: directories, search engines, and specialized tools; searching for news and multimedia; and citing and evaluating Internet information. The strength of this book is the hands-on chapters that contain examples meant to appeal to students from a variety of disciplines. Each chapter contains practice exercises designed to allow readers to master fundamental search skills. Additionally, the chapters are compartmentalized, allowing readers to skip materials they feel are unnecessary or with which they are already familiar. The target audience for this book is readers with little knowledge of Internet searching and those who desire a primer on this topic. However, this book is also a helpful resource for any level of Web searcher because it contains in-depth information on current search engines and their features, as well as other relevant Internet search tools.
