The course aims to increase the effectiveness of students' information search. They will learn strategies, methods and tools for effective information retrieval on the web. Both closed (licensed) and open sources (including Open Access resources) are considered. Students will learn about the possibilities of searching for information relating especially to scientific, specialist, industry and community content. The following problems, among others, will be discussed during the course: typology of documents and classification of information sources; search and resource identification strategies; search engines, multi-search engines, meta-search engines; discovery-type systems; web directories (including so-called subject gateways) web services; use of thematic information sources (e.g. science, business, media and information portals). The course also aims to familiarise students with the use of web-based tools, including web applications, mashup services, browser plug-ins to facilitate search and data collection, news aggregators. During the course, students also evaluate the reliability of information found.
