How true is this scenario?
“with the advent of the World Wide Web, every professional worker has become a searcher, but …without information training and skills, most people don't know where to look, how to ask for what they are seeking or when it is OK to stop looking..”

What is the cost?In 1999, a European study by IDC examined…the "knowledge work
deficit," and concluded that the cost of intellectual rework, substandard performance and inability to find knowledge resources was $5,000 per worker per year.
In 2007, the Lexis-Nexis Workplace Productivity Survey found that “white collar professionals spend an average of 2.3 hours daily conducting online research, with one in ten spending four hours or more on an average day.”

"The results of the [Nexis-Lexis] survey clearly suggest opportunities for American businesses to ease this growing [information overload] burden by providing workers with the right technology, training and tools. Companies that take action on this issue will realize higher employee productivity and satisfaction."

Making choices
• Start with a solid idea of the kind of information you need
• Evaluate using Web ABCs or Web Evaluation Rubric
• Does the website/book/article meet your information need?
![Page 20: Information Literacy: Leveraging information to meet management objectives Betty Braaksma Ganga Dakshinamurti Paul Dugal Paul Larson CAUBO National Conference](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062717/56649e2b5503460f94b1a30a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Web evaluation ABCs
• Authority: Who created the website? Do you know them? Can you find out more?
• Bias: Why did they create the site? What is their perspective on the topic/subject?
• Content & Context: Professional, amateur, academic? Does it fit your information need?

Searching Databases
• Most university library databases are subscription-based, i.e. pay for access rights
• Subscribed databases need user authentication because they are limited to the university community
• “Authentication” at UM =– Input Library ID number & PIN as Faculty/Staff/Student – Must do this on and off-campus– “What if I’m not Faculty, Staff or Student?” - At UM, External Borrowers can access databases *inside a
library* with a day pass.

Peak Oil
“Civilization as we know it is coming to an end soon.This is not the wacky proclamation of a doomsdaycult, apocalypse bible prophecy sect, or conspiracytheory society. Rather, it is the scientific conclusionof the best paid, most widely-respected geologists,physicists, bankers, and investors in the world. Theseare rational, professional, conservative individualswho are absolutely terrified by a phenomenon knownas global Peak Oil.”
