Why look for alternatives?

• Shrinking reference collections

• Pricing model for databases is different

• Shrinking budgets

• OPLIN provides fantastic databases but usage is down

• Can we supplement those resources?

But it can’t be just anything!

• Remember the basics in evaluating websites

– Coverage

– Objectivity

– Author/Publisher/Organization

– Currency

– Accuracy
