Okay, I've googled my fingers off and can't find what I'm looking for. What other search engines have any of you used with luck to find something somewhat obscure?

I use . It is a "super search engine" that searches several search engines at the same time so I don't have to waste my time (dial-up connection) hopping from one place to another. It has an "advanced search" that I use sometimes that can help if I'm not really sure of the best way to search. That was one of the more fun parts of working in the library. Helping someone find the information they wanted when they weren't sure how to go about it. It is like solving a puzzle. :-))) Good luck! Liz from Humbug
