Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Search engines periodically scan the Internet and index it. Search engines help find specific information, much as a book or periodical index can direct one's search. None of the other options provides an adequate comparison.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
If the learning resource center (LRC) does not subscribe to a particular journal, a student may obtain a copy of the article by requesting that the LRC obtain a copy of the article from a cooperating library that subscribes to the journal. A substitute article would not provide identical information. The remaining options would not be productive.
