Custom Search Engines:
These would be great for research projects if you can set them up to get the results that you need. I don't think my plan of action went over so well for setting up a search on the musical phases of Bob Dylan. I really like the stuff that he did on Self Portrait and want more of that. So I tried a search in reference which might not have been the best choice (wikipedia...etc) just overviews really. But I did come across the documentary Don't Look Back that I'm pretty excited about. I just checked it out from the library and will watch it tonight. So yes, for research projects and a targeted custom search engine, this is pretty helpful. The Reference Desk could really utilize this for student projects.
