Going beyond Google

This workshop is suitable for:

Academics and any support staff who deliver to students.

Delivered by

Clare McCluskey & Jane Munks

Google is the default search tool for many people when they are looking for information and evidence on the Internet. However, restricting searches to Google products in any environment means limiting what you will find and this is especially true in the academic environment. This session will show alternatives to Google and make staff aware of how much is available to them and their students via the library at York St John.

Learning Outcomes

  • To become aware of the limitations of Google, both in regard to its search interface and scope
  • To learn about the alternatives which you can promote to your students
  • To understand the best ways of using these resources
