Welcome to the BHCC online tutorial for using web based information sources for college level work. Technology has altered the access, delivery and application of information and promises to continue to challenge and stimulate the way we think about and use data for all sorts of school, work and social reasons.

Pass over what you don't need and use what applies to your current information related assignment or area of interest. The metaphor here is Fishing. If you don't fish or don't know or care anything about fishing it won't make much difference. Harvesting fish from the sea is a recognized New England trade and tradition that suits the content of this WBT well. Considering the details of the analogy may help you to understand why information use is not as hard as it looks but it can be a lot more complicated than you think. Libraries are charged to inform and instruct people about the use of information in the midst of change. This WBT, Web-based Training Tool, is designed to provide students with an information training source that can meet them at their own level of knowledge and experience, give them options for reviewing what they already know, and present them with new ideas and concerns to help them build on their entry skill level when they decide the time is right.

If you are in too much of a hurry to utilize this WBT today, use these shortcuts to engines, directories & guides to find your way to what you need right now. Visit the BHCC Virtual Library
