"This book will empower the reader with new ways to answer questions and find reliable answers. Asking Google does not always work or work safely. As a librarian and researcher for forty years, I have served customers at local libraries, college learning resource centers, and corporate information centers. This book presents a new approach, one I have distilled over many years, coming from efforts as in three spheres: librarian, researcher, and teacher. It incorporates recent research in cognitive science, decision-making theory, learning concepts, and information seeking. Once you successfully go through its lessons, you will see how it makes sense, and you will be able to use it whenever you need answers"--Cover
