Hidden Web Searching on the Internet can be compared to dragging a net across the surface of the ocean. While a great deal may be caught in the net, there is still a wealth of information that is deep, and therefore missed. (Bergman) This information makes up the hidden web. The Deep Web: Surfacing Hidden Value by: Michael K. Bergman NEXT

FYI The Hidden web is currently 400 to 500 times larger than the commonly defined World Wide Web. There are over 200,000 hidden web sites Hidden web sites tend to be narrower with deeper content. Total quality content of the hidden Web is 1,000 to 2,000 times greater than the surface Web. More than half of the Web content resides in topic- specific databases Hidden Web content is highly relevant to every information need, market, and domain. The NHS Library has access to thousands of Resources on the Hidden Web!!!
