Subscription-based A&I services Vs Google Scholar/PubMed/ERIC, that sounds similar to the debate of subscription-based journals Vs OA journals.

"Fake news" used in the title probably hurts the white paper more than helps, since there is no study to indicate GS/PubMed/ERIC index more fake news, which is mostly spread on social media rather than on sites indexed by GS/PubMed/ERIC.

Hi there

I’m new to this forum but wanted to let everyone know that the Institution of Engineering and Technology have recently produced a White Paper called Cookies, Fake News And Single Search Boxes: The Role Of A&I Services In A Changing Research Landscape.

Librarians and researchers shared their thoughts with us on how they use search tools for academic research and highlighted the differences between curated resources and general search engines.

You can download the White Paper for free here www.theiet.org/aandi-whitepaper

Many thanks

Steve Benveniste
