Why should you use the Library?
Where do you go to get information for a research paper? 
What did you do in High School?  Welcome to Wikipedia, the freeencyclopedia that anyone can edit.
Internet Myths Everything worth finding is already on the Web. Google searches the whole Web. The best information is found in the first 10 results. Searching is easy. Everything is free. Everything is truthful, authoritative, accurate. Devine, Jane and Francine Egger-Sider. Going Beyond Google: The Invisible Web in Learning and Teaching         New York: Neal-Schuman 2009. Print.
Search engines only crawl 16-20% of the Internet.  http://www.juanico.co.il/Main%20frame%20-%20English/Issues/invisible%20web.gif
“Why should you use the library?”  The Invisible Web
What is the Invisible Web? 	There's information out there that is actually not indexed in the big search engines. Such Web pages are part of what's called the Dark, Deep, Hidden or Invisible Web.  http://oedb.org/library/college-basics/invisible-web
http://www.osti.gov/speeches/fy2006/icsti/images/slide6.jpg
http://www.kn.att.com/wired/21stcent/wversus.html
“Why should you use the library?”  Not everything is on the internet.  	Availability to browse and read books, magazines, encyclopedias, and other print materials that are not online. Not everything is free.   	Access to fee-based databases with thousands of magazines and scholarly journals in full text. Librarians (with faculty help) spend time selecting quality materials:  books, journals and databases.  We collect scholarly and authoritative materials especially for your classes.  Personal assistance through LMU librarians and assistants.  	Get Help!
Google doesn’t have a One Card… …but you do!
Use your OneCard when you are off-campus.

Editor's Notes

  1. WikipediaAnyone can edit itInaccurate and erroneous informationVandalism(in Wikipedia you are not supposed to write about yourself- controversies about living biographies editing your own biography to present yourself in a better light.Most fans of Wikipedia will agree that when it comes to scholarly research. Wikipedia should not be used as a primary resource. It’s a place to start, just like any print encyclopedia is. Once you have a basic understanding of the topic, you can then move on to a more specific and reliable resources.)
