PART 1
The goal of PART 1 is to give you an insight into learning centre and information services and important databases of collections in different parts of the world available on the Web. Library catalogues are still important sources of metadata, because modern library catalogues cover acquired information material disregarding its form (printed/electronic). Web information services for subject and word searching play a key role, when material freely available on the Web is searched.
After this part you should know the services of Aalto University learning centre, know the important libraries within your field in Finland and abroad as well as the most significant producers of information, and recognise the special features of network information services from the point of view of information searching.
