Title

¬The effect of CD-ROM instruction on search operator use

Source

College and research libraries. 57(1996) no.1, S.68-76

Year

1996

Abstract

Reports results of a survey of 675 CD-ROM users at State University of New York at Albany Libraries, obtaining data from both questionnaires and actual search strategies. The primary aim was to investigate the effect of prior user training or assistance on CD-ROM search strategy. A statistically significant but weak relationship was found between prior rtraining and level of search skill. Other measures such as user status, department affiliation of major, age, sex, and number of previous CD-ROM uses were compared to search skill. Only user status and department affiliation or major were significantly correlated to search skill. Concludes that additional research is needed on the effectiveness of various types of CD-ROM training
