This looks interesting, especially with the Open WorldCat program and Google Scholar recently getting so much attention. Google Hacks, 2nd ed. by Tara Calishain and Rael Dornfest.

Not only is there more information than ever to be found--via email, computer hard drives, and newly digitized repositories of previously offline content--there is also a greater need to automate tasks and to locate that needle of information in a haystack that will just not stop growing."
