Augustine, Susan Greene, Courtney Academic Libraries Case Studies Higher Education Internet Library Services Navigation (Information Systems) Search Engines Search Strategies Use Studies User Satisfaction (Information) Discusses results of a usability study at the University of Illinois Chicago that investigated whether Internet search engines have influenced the way students search library Web sites.
