I did the Citation Pearl search on ERIC. I started with an article by Kimberly Bolan entitled "Looks Like Teen Spirit: Libraries for Youth Are Changing--Thanks to Teen Input." I clicked "More Like This" and recieved a list of search terms. I selected "library services," "student participation," and "adolescents." The result was an informative article about involving teens in the creation of library programs.I liked using the Citation Pearl search and found that the results were positive. I think this type of search would be beneficial when the user is having difficulty finding relevant documents. Once the user has found one match, the search would allow him to piggy-back into finding others.
