Seller's Description:
Very good. xiv, 275, [7] pages. Illustrations. Appendix: Referenced Sites and Sources. Signed with sentiment by Bates. Text is From one super searcher to another--Mary Ellen Bates. This is Super Searchers volume VIII, a series edited by Reva Basch. Mary Ellen Bates is the founder and principal of Bates Information Services Inc. After 15 years managing corporate information centers and specialized libraries, she started her business in 1991 with the intent of providing high-end research and analysis services to strategic decision-makers. Projects have ranged from the market for secondhand Blackhawk helicopters to the safety of biotech manufacturing processes, background on hedge fund managers, and trends in Australian wines. She has written seven books on various aspects of the information industry, as well as a number of white papers and ebooks sponsored by information companies for lead generation. Among the super searchers profiled are: Ruth Pagell, Federico Turnbull, Maribeth Bacig, Peter Sidney, Kyoka Toyoda, Richard Raynen, Valerie Matarese, Sheri Lanza, Wes Edens, Tracey Collinson, Michele Marinak, Desmond Crane, Arnoldo Sterinzan, Miranda van Roosmalen, Christine Windheuser, and Chris Kinghorn. As the ubiquity of the Internet has fostered more interest in business outside the United States, the need for companies to see their market and competitive environment in a global perspective has forced more businesses to think internationally. This book asks the experts to reveal their strategies for finding international business information on the Web. Through a collection of 15 interviews with expert online researchers, exploration of the specific challenges of reaching outside a researchers geographic area and expertise is detailed. In-country experts from around the world such as librarians and researchers from government organizations, multinational companies, universities, and small businesses discuss issues such as non-native language sources, cultural bias, and judging reliability of unfamiliar sources. Interviewees are from countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, China, Italy, Argentina, Mexico, and The Netherlands.
