La première édition date de 1992. Donc la structure de l'ouvrage a été modifiée pour inclure les ressources du Web : les sites, cédéroms et bases de données informatiques liés aux différentes sphères de l'information. Les deux premiers chapitres portent sur les bibliothèques et les centres de documentation. La recherche rapide d'information passe souvent par les ouvrages de référence de base, comme les dictionnaires et les encyclopédies. L'auteur en dresse le portrait au chapitre trois de son ouvrage.
