Expérimentations et évaluations en fouille de textes : un panorama des campagnes DEFT édit. by Cyril Grouin et Dominic Forest (review)

that must be checked to see what they are (and in doing this just for this review I had to force myself back to writing instead of delving into the Web). I will value both books for course preparation as there is unique content in each that will contribute, for example, to content on searching grey literature to inform health policy. However, if I could keep only one, for the quantity of new-to-me content, it would have to be Expert Internet Searching. Among the content that I appreciated most for course preparation is a comparison of clustering search engines such as Carrot2 in chapter 5 and Visual Searching in chapter 8. Chapter 11, “Academic and Other Specialized Search Engines,” sets these specialized “niche market” products apart in a way that reinforces for me that information and resources must be “fit for purpose” and begs the question why we health librarians pay so much to make resources designed for academics available to health services workers without knowing for sure that these workers have enough time or capacity to search for and then synthesize multiple primary research articles to meet their day-to-day practice-based information needs. Chapter 14, “Hints and Tips on Better Searching with Sample Search Examples,” includes pointers for testing search skills, getting the most out of browsers, and setting up personal home pages for expert searchers. I have been digging into the evolving concept of expert searching and have yet to identify recent work that provides an explicit solid, modern foundation to support expert searchers who need both a common language and standard methods to select between and then guide different search processes. This book does not set out to meet these needs, but throughout and specifically in chapter 16, “The Future of Search,” it does expand the horizons of what constitutes expert searching beyond what was imaginable just a few years ago.
