A guide provided by the University of California at Berkeley Library. This page, titled "Finding Information on the Internet: A Tutorial" provides a detailed table of contents for the tutorial which includes (among very many others) such topics as these:
- "/Web Browser Guides"
- "Three Families or Types of Search Toons"
"Three Families or Types of Search Tools" includes detailed tables of the features of the most commonly used major search engines, subject directories, and meta-search engines, with detailed searching instructions and sample searches, and links to all the search directories and search engines discussed.
COMMENT:
One of the fullest and most extensive guides to searching for information in the Internet. For less extensive information but a convenient chart of the various features of major search engines and directories see Link B 7, "Guide to Using the Internet."; for a detailed, rigorous and sophisticated analysis and evaluation of Internet search engines see Link B 15, "Internet Finding Tools."
