THE RESEARCHING LIBRARIAN: WEB RESOURCES HELPFUL FOR LIBRARIANS DOING RESEARCH

摘要

The Researching Librarian is an established website created by Kerry Smith in June 2000 and maintained by Beth Ashmore. Designed for librarians who need to perform research for any reason-although publication, promotion, and tenure are highlighted-the site excels as a directory. The introduction on the home page explains: "Intended as a supplement to the print and electronic resources available in library collections, this site gathers links to selected web resources useful for research: freely searchable citation and full-text databases, funding information, relevant journals, statistics and statistical methods, useful research tools, current awareness sources, and conference papers and proceedings."
