EIR - Practical 6

Do you think it is more effective to search the invisible web (databases) than using search engines, meta-search or subject directories? Why?

No. I feel that search engines are faster and more user friendly. If I needed to do an extensive research on something I feel that it would be easier to use a application that I already know how to use and is easy and fast to be efficient.

Name ONE database which you will use for your research topic. Why?

I guess I would use ebscoHost. Well, it’s the only DB that I did get results from.

Name ONE more database which you will use for your course. How will you use this database for your course?

I do not have a course anymore.
