10/21 Workshop: Google for Researchers

Time: Tuesday, October 21, 2008 • 2:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m.
Location: Walter Library, Room 310

With Google, you already search the web, share photos/movies/music, map directions, and discover new things...but there are some tools you may have missed. This web search engine is on a mission to "organize the world's information and make it universally accessible." So let's explore the new tools and technology that pair Google-efficient tools with library-quality results to weave together a rich information web that goes beyond just the World Wide Web. We'll look at tools such as Google Docs, RSS Reader, Google Scholar, and iGoogle Research Gadgets that will help you access, evaluate, and share information in an easy collaborate environment.
