The Summer of Search
2007 is my Summer of Search. I'm taking the Searching Electronic Databases class (in which I get to experience the joys of Dialog searching), I'm meeting once a week with one of our librarians (who is a kick ass searcher) for an ongoing tutorial in MEDLINE searching, and our entire reference staff will have Search Camp twice a month all summer (we will concentrate on MEDLINE searching and using clinical tools like Up To Date and MDConsult). I'm also teaching an Ovid MEDLINE Basics class and an Advanced Google class. Will I be any smarter by the end of the summer? Maybe not, but I hope I'll be a better searcher.
