    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

    Abstract
    Reports results of a survey, conducted by the State University of New York and Albany Library, to investigate the effects of gender, college status and prior Internet experience on the use of Internet resources. The subjects were 96 randomly selected users using the library's Internet terminals during the first 2 months of 1995. The majority of users were found to share the following characteristics: male undergraduates affiliated with the social sciences; and novice users who have less than 6 months experience. Respondents felt strongly that the Internet is useful, and has been an important resource for their research and assignment. Users have high expectations of searching capabilities, while they feel neutral or disappointed with browsing. Results indicate that libraries should provide access to the Internet and suggest that libraries should take the lead in developing searchable indexes and making databases better organized for the ease and effectiveness of browsing
