Search corner

Abstract

Marjorie Hlava has taken on responsibility for this Search Corner section of Online Review. Marjorie is Information Director for the National Energy Center Affiliate and Manager for Information at the Technology Application Center at the University of New Mexico. The section presents tips on online searching and we reintroduce here the Search Contest with a difference. We are asking database producers and online system vendors to set questions and offer a prize for the answers that are judged to be best. We encourage reader participation not only in the contest, but also in contributing search tips or problems they have found particularly challenging.
