Method and device for processing resources

A method and device for processing resources. The method specifically comprises: receiving a search term input by a user (401); querying in a resource database according to the search term, so as to obtain at least one category of resource data matched with the search term, a mapping relation between multiple categories of resource data and keywords being stored in the resource database (402); displaying the at least one category of resource data (403); and calling a corresponding application program according to a selecting operation that is performed on the at least one category of resource data by the user, so as to show, in the application program, the resource data, corresponding to the selecting operation (404). At least one category of resource data matched with a search term can be queried by inputting the search term at a time, and the resource data can be directly opened in a corresponding application program, such that a situation of a user needing to repeatedly search in different types of search engines to acquire different categories of resource data is changed, thus being capable of improving searching efficiency.
