  RESEARCH
ON THE NET

 


INTERNET SEARCH ENGINES
There are a large number of programs (called "search engines") available through the net which allow you to search by using keywords. For most of them, you enter the keyword and click on Search. Many of these search engines use special terms which you can insert to refine your search. The special terms are called Boolean Operators.

You might also benefit from reading my lecture titled Conducting Electronic Rersearch.

To save you some time, I've set up direct links so that you can use any one of the following Internet search engines right from here:

    Lycos
    Webcrawler
    Yahoo
    Deja News
    Excite
    Magellan
    FTP
    Point
    Infoseek
    Open Text
    shareware.com
    Savvy Search

Here are some links to web sites where you'll find additional help with writing your research paper.

If you have trouble with your research, send an e-mail stating what you're looking for, your specific problem(s), and where it occurred, to Dr. Write.
