Good Place to Start, A: The IDS Knowledge Services Guide to Finding Development Information Online


Publication Date

2006

Summary

This is a guide to development information on the internet. Drawing on the collective expertise of the Knowledge Services staff at the Institute of Development Studies (IDS), Sussex, this guide highlights websites that may be a good place to begin searching for information on over 30 development themes. The book also includes advice on how to improve your search results.

from the Introduction:
"IDS Information Department has been summarising and signposting to online material on development since 1995, but where does its staff go to find these resources? We asked them each to recommend five websites that they consider good places to find information on over 30 development themes. The websites they've chosen are easy-to-use, offer a broad range of free material and many of them include materials in different languages. We also invited internet users to nominate their favourite sites in the categories of Gender, ICTs and Conflict."
