A presentation to the Detroit Suburban Libraries Roundtable, March 13, 2008, Madison Heights Public Library.
There are many new web-based tools available that can assist libraries in providing service to their patrons. Here are 10 (and Trailfire makes 11) that may be useful and are free or inexpensive.
This presentation is available as a slide show on scribd.com here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/2273836/10-Terrific-Tech-Tools-in-20-Minutes
DISCLAIMER: The services described in this trail are representative of the trail discussed, but other services may be as good or better. If you find a better service, let me know!

While the Internet provides students and other researchers with a vast array of information, the need for evaluation of web content has become an increasingly important component of information literacy.
A number of websites have emerged on the web that are hoaxes, scams or spoofs of actual information sites. The question for librarians is how best to educate web researchers on evaluating web sites for their authenticity, objectivity and timeliness. This trail may be one way to expose web researchers to the pitfalls of the internet.
