X Abstract

Effective Web research must include both Visible and Invisible Web resources and reference librarians have an important role to play in mediating the research process. The Google search engine is the public’s tool of choice and dominates Web searching even though it accesses a limited portion of the Web. The Invisible Web is less well-known to the public and harder to access but contains a greater wealth of resources. Reference librarians should help guide people to the best solutions for their information needs: at times Google, at other times the diverse tools that access the Invisible Web.
