Title

Quint's online : the big lie

Source

Information today. 10(1993) no.4, S.7-9

1993

Abstract

Examines why librarians choose their profession as such. If professional searchers are dedicated to the service of their clients, why do they deny them the best information tools? Gives a example of how the use of online can incur a 10 dollars charge without results. Unlike professional searchers, end users will not wait for the products to get better or work with what they get
