Book Review
Web
Search Garage
by Tara Calishain
Auditors
should possess all of the core competencies of digital literacy
including search skills for finding information on the Internet. This
book from Tara Calishain, one of the premier Web search gurus, is what
every auditor needs in their digital toolkit. Calishain regularly uses
her search skills to locate and report those finds to subscribers of
ResearchBuzz.com, her
newsletter and companion Web site. The AuditNet community has benefited
many times from knowledge I have gleaned and shared from issues of
ReseachBuzz. The author takes readers through an explanation of search
engine technology and the unique features of the major search tools.
Part II of the book covers the principles of Web searching and is a must
read and master section for the entire audit community. Here Calashain
walks users through each proven strategy for finding information on the
most comprehensive technological environment created in our lifetime.
Web Search Garage contains A-Z search guidance that auditors can use for
both professional and personal research on the Internet. Add this book
to your arsenal of tools to increase your skills for one of the core
competencies of digital literacy.
