Stebbins, a research librarian and educator, has formulated six strategies designed to help online information seekers find answers: start at the source; understand the psychology of search; the difference between expert, amateur, and crowd-backed information; context, motivation, and bias; comparison and corroboration; and how deep to delve.She applies these strategies to five sample searches ranging from traditional topics, such as health information and business research, to casual consumer goods and services reviews and vacation planning. Stebbins' examples and personal anecdotes illustrate the very serious issues facing anyone who uses the Internet as a research tool. The lively and engaging writing makes understandable high-concept topics such as the distinction between slow versus fast thinking as related to the evaluation of information and deep versus shallow web research. Suitable for a general audience as well as information students.--Szwarek, Magan Copyright 2016 Booklist
