The best available expert is linked to a client in order to assist the client in understanding information obtained from computerized searches. The client and expert may be a part of the same or different networks. A resource matching program identifies and generates a concept from inquiries launched by the client. The concept is compared against an expert datasource which comprises data concerning the skills and knowledge of experts. This comparison, along with a set of availability rules, helps locate the best available expert. Once such an expert is located a link is established with the expert. The link may comprise a variety of communication methods including telephony, electronic mail, Internet, facsimile or wireless methods.
