Lee passed along This Sacbee.com Story that says the Internet has made trained librarians more necessary than ever before. I\’m not sure what it has done for the untrained librarians.

They say credentialed library media teachers can teach students how to conduct efficient Internet searches, sift valid information from a sea of bogus Web pages, and most importantly, monitor the sites they\’re accessing while teaching them about the ethics involved in plagiarism and copyright infringement.
