"Access to high quality on-line information and learning resources is now essential to all engaged in education, whether as students, teachers, or researchers. But finding and using the right resources is not easy - for example, exploiting multimedia materials can be particularly demanding. It is clear also that without the enabling role of a managed environment, information seekers cannot always be confident about the quality of the information they encounter. The development of a coherent information environment is an important means of helping users to maximise the value of the Internet, by making best use of its bewildering profusion of information resources."

NICE WEB SITE

In the course of finding sites of interest for this Newsletter, we sometimes come across Web sites which we feel deserve slightly more than a passing mention. Each month we will pick out one or more such sites, and give them a short review. The sites will normally be UK based, may be small or large, and be of interest or potential interest to academics. After lengthy discussions we have decided, with incredible creativity :-), to call these: Nice Web Sites. Details of previous Nice Web Sites are available in the Nice Web Site Archive.

PRESS RELEASES

**** psci-com relaunched ****

The Wellcome Trust Library has re-launched psci-com ( http://psci-com.org.uk ) after a period of development and re-design. psci-com is a web gateway to high-quality internet resources on science communication, public engagement with science and the wider impact of science on society.

At its centre psci-com comprises an evaluated database of high-quality internet resources relevant to public engagement with science. In selecting resources for inclusion attention has been paid to items that meet defined quality criteria and those that are of use to the target audiences.

Resources include funding sources, practical guides for science communicators, competitions and awards, science centre information. The gateway also covers the wider issues of science and society including public attitudes to science, science education, science policy and science and the arts. The database focused initially on biomedical topics such as human genetics and society, but has expanded to include many resources outside of the life sciences. The aim is to appeal to the wide spectrum of disciplines represented by the public engagement of science community.

Following the redesign of the web site, the user is now able both to search and browse the database. Browsing is achieved by clicking on a series of related subject headings which allow the user to follow links between broader and narrower terms. For example, clicking on Science Communication will take you to a series of more specific topics such as Science writing, Science festivals and Risk communication.

Other features include an electronic calendar of conferences, workshops and other events, access to monthly digests of books, reports and articles on science and society and access to an electronic discussion forum, also called psci-com.

In order to reach a wider audience, psci-com has been affiliated with the BIOME web site. BIOME is a collection of gateways which provide access to evaluated, quality Internet resources in health and life sciences. This means that you can access psci-com directly or through BIOME.

If you can suggest any relevant web sites or are planning an event that you think should be included on psci-com, you can use the form on psci-com to submit your information. Alternatively, contact me directly.

**** UDC Now Available Online ****

The Universal Decimal Classification (UDC), the world's foremost classification scheme for all fields of knowledge, has been made available online (in English) as UDC Online BS 1000. UDC Online is designed to index and retrieve highly technical information and is well suited to indexing traditional as well as non-traditional media. The new online product from BSI and Technical Indexes is presented by British Standards Publishing Limited on behalf of the UDC Consortium (www.udcc.org).

The new product can be used to index multi-media collections, motion pictures, map collections, art collections and web-based directories of learning resources. It is uniquely equipped to represent interrelations between subjects. UDC Online is searchable by truncation, and offers the option of broadening the search if it is not immediately productive. The enhanced product now offers:

· Complete content of the internationally owned official UDC database
· The most up to date version always available online
· Number building facility to help construct complex UDC numbers on screen
· Search and view online
· Cut and paste to save time and avoid transcription errors
· User-friendly screens
· Multiple search strategies e.g. string search in natural language, boolean search, searching using summaries and shifting to greater detail or browsing the notation, up or down the hierarchy
· Context sensitive help

The online format offers many user benefits including a number building facility that helps construct complex UDC numbers on screen as you watch. Once the number is complete, cut and paste allows you to record and use it very quickly and with no risk of transcription error. There are advantages in using UDC online in Internet services as the UDC structure more than any other lends itself to machine searching schemes. There has been significant market interest in an online version of UDC for some time. Those using UDC will find this new product fills this modern day need."

UDC Online BS 1000 is available on annual subscription at a special introductory price of £295 p.a. for a limited period only.

BOOK REVIEW

Review of:

The advanced internet searcher's handbook,
2nd edition, by Phil Bradley,
Library Association Publishing, 2002
ISBN: 1-85604-380-0
£29.95

Last month I reviewed 'The Invisible Web' by Chris Sherman and Gary Price, and said that it was the best book I'd read about the Internet all year. As it is now a new year, I can safely say that the second edition of Phil Bradley's 'The advanced internet searcher's handbook' is the best book I've read this year. Bradley's book is liable to remain the best read for some time, and I would not like to choose between the two, as they both contain a great deal of useful information.

The purpose of 'The advanced internet searcher's handbook' is to help people search the Internet more effectively by giving a better understanding of how search engines and similar tools work. It goes further than this, though, and also looks at ways to find images, sound, multimedia and people, and in addition gives information about numerous other resources.

The first 100 pages deal almost exclusively with search engines - free text search engines, directory-based search engines, meta-search engines, natural-language search engines, and resource- or site-specific search engines. Did you know that there are over 20,000 search engines on the Internet? Bradley explains how they work, how to make the most of them, how to focus searches, how to use advanced search features, and when to use the different types of search engines.

Bradley them gives an outline of other resources such as online communities, commercially available databases and virtual libraries. Of virtual libraries he says "…they are a very useful set of resources, which are all too often sadly ignored or badly publicized.", so I was pleased that he cited PINAKES which is produced by Heriot Watt Library, as a good launchpad to over 40 virtual libraries and gateways.

There are helpful chapters on intelligent agents, newsgroups and mailing lists, and these are followed by a section giving real examples of Internet searches to show how to use the various tools discussed in the earlier chapters. Some crystal ball gazing into the future of searching the Internet is then followed by forty hints for better and quicker searching.

'The advanced internet searcher's handbook' is well researched and easy to read. Jargon is avoided, and the lists of Web addresses at the end of each chapter would make excellent bookmarks. Every information professional with even the slightest involvement in the Internet should make sure they have access to a copy of thisbook.
