WHERE OH WHERE WILL THE WORLD CUP BE?

Maribeth Bacig, a librarian at the Minneapolis Public Library working in INFORM, presents the first in a series of articles describing the experiences of professionals searching data sources online for information on a set topic. Searchers from different countries are given a question to answer, a budget of £50 and a time in which to produce their report. We hope that these blow‐by‐blow accounts, together with the hints and tips picked up along the way, will help all the readers of Online & CDROM Review develop their search strategies.
