Rating: Summary: Excellent Step by Step Research Guide. Review: I am a Reference Librarian and found this extremely useful. I will be teaching a class at a conference on researching speeches and will certainly put this book in the bibliography. It helps to know not just to go to the library, but which type of library for what you are working on.
Rating: Summary: A must have for researchers Review: I can't say I've done any professional research, but this book has definitely helped me find information. This book opened my eyes to all the possibilities available in research. It talks of different types of libraries to use, how to use "experts", and talks a bit about "information brokers" (not always called that). There is also some internet links that you might find useful. I figure this book should really have 5 out of 5 stars.
Rating: Summary: Find it Fast Review: This is a must have if you've got to do research. I love the fact that the information presented is not exclusive to searching on the internet.
Rating: Summary: Helps you become a researcher par excellance! Review: When I first came across an earlier edition of this book back in 1992, little did I know that it would help shape me as a professional. My editors and other clients repeatedly comment about how thorough I am with my research methodology and findings. "Find It Fast" helped me become a researcher par excellance. I highly recommend this book particularly to researchers, writers, and authors. -- Kimberly Stansell, author, Bootstrapper's Success Secrets: 151 Tactics for Building Your Business on a Shoestring Budget (Career Press)
