    Abstract
    In January 2001, the OCLC Institute released its first online learning course, Cataloging Internet Resources Using MARC21 and AACR2. This research investigated whether participants using this Web-based tool would gain experience equivalent to that of librarians who are already proficient in the skill of cataloging Internet resources. A pre-course/post-course comparison of test results of librarians not experienced with cataloging Internet resources indicated an increase of 35 percent (from 51 to 86 percent) of the correct answers after taking the Web-based course. The group experienced with cataloging Internet resources answered an average of 71 percent of the questions correctly.

    Abstract
    The role of the library in distance ducation is evolving. Guided by accreditation standards, libraries seek to meet the needs of distant learners through a variety of services and products. While the Internet plays a significant role in the access and delivery of library services, new information technology is being developed to meet the growing needs and demands of distant learners

    Abstract
    The Colorado Digitization Project is a cooperative endeavor designed to enable creation of a virtual library of unique resources and historical collections in Colorado through assisting all types of Cultural Heritage Institutions in the State to scan and make available on the Internet images of materials and artifacts within their collections. An important component of the project is educational, and includes teaching staff in all types of institutions about access, cataloging and metadata.

    Abstract
    This article endorses the use of Web-based instruction for cataloging education as represented by OCLC's online course, Cataloging Internet Resources Using MARC21 and AACR2. This type of instruction is particularly useful to working catalogers (professional and paraprofessional alike) who cannot spare the time or the expense to attend workshops and seminars in order to receive training in the latest developments in the field. The OCLC course also paves the way for a new standardized program of online cataloging education that will be tailored for working catalogers at all levels of expertise and that will offer specialized, yet convenient, training in a wide variety of formats.

    Abstract
    With the increasing emphasis on student centered learning, the library at the university of Hull has taken several initiatives towards the creation of an awareness of networked electronic information resources on campus, encouraging their use in support of teaching and research. The 'free' access to Internet using JANET is explained, along with examples of the sort of data that can be browsed, and if required, downloaded. Discusses the use of Internet 'data' in computer based training is discussed, as well as e-mail and other online addresses (url). with some that might be useful to educationalists listed

    Abstract
    The Internet, particularly the Web, is a wonderful free source of information that can vastly improve the array of resources available to library patrons. Unfortunately, not all information is honest and accurate, and some of it is not suitable for certain age groups. Students using the Web for research often come upon unsuitable sites. We can get around this by constructing Web learning environments containing safe sites for students. These learning experiences include WebQuests, Pathfinders, Treasure Hunts, Scavenger Hunts, and Tracks.

    Abstract
    Describes the work of a task force of librarians, at Illinois University at Chicago, in developing an introductory course on the online searching of the Internet and which was conducted over the University's electronic mail network. The 16 lesson course was distributed via listserv to students, staff, residents, and faculty (some using university facilities and some using equipment at their home or office) in various locations throughout the state. Initially, more than 450 people subscribes. Subscribers received 2 lessons a week for 8 weeks. Lessons were made available via FTP ot gopher after initial distribution. Content included basic information, troubleshooting advice, and exercises for practice. Pre and post tests were conducted via listserv to assess the participants' prior knowledge and subsequent knowledge gain. Describes the development of the online course, discusses the results of pre and post tests, and notes the implications for the library's instructional role of using an online instruction medium

    Abstract
    The Internet can be a valuable tool allowing distance learners to access information not available locally. Search engines are the most common means of locating relevant information an the Internet, but to use them efficiently students should be taught the basics of searching and how to evaluate the results. This article briefly reviews how Search engines work, studies comparing Search engines, and criteria useful in evaluating the quality of returned Web pages. Research indicates there are statistical differences in the precision of Search engines, with AltaVista ranking high in several studies. When evaluating the quality of Web pages, standard criteria used in evaluating print resources is appropriate, as well as additional criteria which relate to the Web site itself. Giving distance learners training in how to use Search engines and how to evaluate the results will allow them to access relevant information efficiently while ensuring that it is of adequate quality.
