Power Searching [Pittsfield]-CANCELLED

This class has been merged with the 1:30 PM program "Power Tools".
According to a March 2012 survey conducted by Netcraft.com, there are over 644 million active websites worldwide. With this much available, patrons, students and even librarians can be overwhelmed with information while performing a basic search using the common search engines.
In this workshop, you will learn to search like an expert!
- Examine some of the different engines available
- Create more effective search phrases and strings
- Use advanced search tools such as directories, subject indices and forums
Bring your own device if you prefer: please indicate when registering. Laptops and tablets available for all sessions.
