Libfly (GRATUIT - TOUT PUBLIC) Guide to Web Search: The Invisible Web Learn how to find anything on the Internet with quality Web sites. Become a smarter, savvier searcher. FindingDulcinea also offers foreign language versions of this guide in Chinese, Russian and Spanish. The Invisible Web Many of the Web’s most extensive sites work like libraries. These database sites keep their information tucked away in the stacks, and if you want something, you have to ask for it. Insights for the Invisible Web A brief explanation of the invisible Web: Information in databases can only be accessed by direct searches (searches from within the site itself), which prevents search engines from finding it.White pages, electronic books, online journals, image files, newspaper archives, dictionary definitions and patents are examples of the file types found in databases. One trick for finding databases with standard search engines is as simple as adding the term “database” to your search query. Online databases occasionally require users to pay for access to their content.
