In our catalogue the subject heading for PTSD is Post-traumatic stress disorder
Really I must stop using acronyms. OK? Perhaps we could add to our synonym list or have a see also. But realy where would this all end up?
I even found Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder For Dummies [electronic resource] no subject heading - ebook - record - nasty
Here's a question - how would you create a delicious page for a Murdoch University Unit - the answer is no doubt easy - has it been done though and did any students use it? Or does it need to be more social than that?
Google - well whilst that which is familiar is often despised (source unkown) it does let you work fast and develop skill - it also let me restrict my search to title only and geographic area - which i doubt the others do - correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes there is many ways to do the same thing differently - actually what I would like is the usber application called "Integrates everything"
Zuula - now I'm not a fan of federated searching but this was kind of slick - domains and sources for easy comparison - demonstrated marked differnces in what was indexed.
Kartoo - errh no ... but I can think of some apropriate reverse alliterations ... some funny .... but all unflattering. Not that I hate visual representation of information. For a time I was a big fan of the Plumb Visual Thesaurus, until it went commercial. Now called Visual Thesaurus
You know web searching is addictive and its going to be hard to get off Google.

For over a year, QUT Creative Industries Librarians have had an embedded delicious tag cloud in WebCt for their units.
I have been to two presentations from them at various conferences, and I was impressed that one unintended consequence of the exercise was that students are able to see by example which websites are considered scholarly or suitable for study. The librarians also thought that the students trusted them more as experts in other areas because they knew how to use delicious.
