Search engines can be very powerful tools when gathering information for research projects, listings for local movies, or businesses. Many of you have probably already used a search engine, whether you realize it or not. When you go to the library and look for a book on the web, you are actually using a search engine to view the contents of the library's database. Another example is when you registered for classes this semester, you used a search engine to hunt for the classes you wanted to take. Those are just two examples of search engines, again there are many more of them lurking about the web that you can use to find information on any subject.

Below is a table that consists of many helpful sites that contain search engines. You can use many of these search engines to help you in your everyday life and also in school to find information for research projects.
