Information seeking guide for Information Technology

With the help of this guide you become acquainted with the information sources of information technology. 

An extensive range of information sources and search services is collected into the guide
for the help of the IT students. You will also find some hints for information retrieval and for evaluation of information sources. 

With the help of this guide you'll learn to use different search services: library lists, e-books, e-journals and other information which can be found on the internet.

Take a good look at the guide and contact the library if you have something to ask or you face some
difficulties! You can also ask for a personal guidance on the information retrieval.
