ODW2348 – Below the Horizon: Using Deep Web Search Engines for Academic and Scholarly Research

Course Materials: Webinar recording and a PDF of the PowerPoint slides.

Description: When you hear about the deep web on TV or in movies, it is never based on reality but rather on what makes a good story. It is no more than a “web within a web” of information that, by the choice of its posters, cannot be accessed through the simple technology of “crawlers” such as Google, Bing, or Yahoo.

What exactly is the deep web? What possible purpose could it serve for the research community? Join us to learn everything you need to know about the deep web, including what it means, where it lives, and how you can use it to your advantage.
