The goal of this article is to present science librarians with a model, not only for the basic, command-based parameters of what and how to search information, but to create a level of information strategy and assessment. An exhaustive list of Internet sites is excluded, but representative information is included. The focus of this article is how to identify audiences, user assessments, models of training, methods of training delivery, and goals for the future. Having users learn how to balance the availability of databases, journals, services and sources by articulating the features and advantages of each choice, should be the focus of all training initiatives.
