Module 2: The Academic Library PAF 101 Module 2: The Academic Library Overview of Module 2 Crucial SU Libraries resources for Module 2 Important locations @ SU Libraries Advice on specific Module 2 exercises

PAF 101 Module 2 Conceptual Overview: Incorporates Multiple information formats & retrieval tools Requires significant time investment, due 2/24 Increases familiarity & comfort level with use of a research library Calls for navigating a series of research exercises where attention to detail is essential

Crucial SU Libraries Resources for Module 2 Off-campus access to subscription databases and electronic journals, etc. –use your: SU NET ID/NET ID Password

SU Libraries Offline & Online visit: http://library. syr SU Libraries Offline & Online visit: http://library.syr.edu/about/locations/ for info about library building hours, etc. Three Primary Branches (and Belfer Audio Lab and Archive) 40+ librarians/Over 150 staff members Over 3 million monographs & other print backfiles Over 1 million audiovisual titles Over 49,000 serial/periodical subscriptions 100s of online databases

A recently renovated Carnegie Library Silent reading & study area Computer cluster available Sept 11, 1907: Original Carnegie Library opens {was SU’s main library until Bird Library opened in 1972} Collections – in addition to the sciences, engineering, health and math, now also includes books in photography and military sciences

Bird Library = shelving location for books covering all Maxwell School disciplines (incl. PAF 101) – lesser used titles & print versions of many periodicals and academic journals shelved in high density storage (aka: SU Libraries “Facility”) – request forms appear on library catalog item record pages for books or periodicals located at the “facility” (next business day delivery Sunday thru Friday with articles delivered by email; books physically delivered to Bird Library’s 1st floor circulation desk) – vast majority of the collection’s periodicals, newspapers, journal articles, etc. available online, 24/7, via the library web site link labeled “journals” (and via 100s of licensed databases) You can find scanners on the first floor of Bird Library, at almost every computer in the cluster near the Circulation Desk.

Library Services Your SU ID Card = Your Library Card (undergraduate student borrowing period for books is 28 days) – see ‘your accounts’ link @ library website for information about books you have checked out, to renew books, etc.

TEAM ROOMS WITH TECHNOLOGY AT BIRD LIBRARY TEAM ROOMS WITH TECHNOLOGY AT BIRD LIBRARY... reserve in person at 1st floor technology desk OR via “study spaces” link at library.syr.edu

SU Libraries Homepage - http://library.syr.edu Four (4) Crucial Starting Points Summon Databases List Journals/Journal Locator Subject Guides For in-depth exploration of library print collections when a known “title” is sought > the “Classic Catalog” can help.

Four (4) Crucial Starting Points SU Libraries Homepage - http://library.syr.edu Four (4) Crucial Starting Points Summon – Search engine for most of SU Libraries’ collections and other resources beyond SU Libraries. Includes articles, books, journals, maps, sound recordings, archival materials, government documents and more Databases List – A list of databases available through Syracuse University Libraries. Includes databases containing articles, images, data, and videos. Search for a database by title, subject area or content type Journals/Journal Locator – A list of print and electronic journals, magazines, and newspapers available through Syracuse University Libraries. Search or browse by title, ISSN, or subject category Subject Guides – Subject Guides pull together a package of resources on a specific discipline or course of study. They are useful as an introduction to research on that topic and as a means of engaging with a librarian expert

Question by Question Guidance – the database tools you’ll use on Module 2:

2.1 – Note the option to zoom into sets of data tables extracted from many of these full statistical report PDFs Options for sorting, refining and narrowing results appear at left margin (or right margin) in many databases

2.1 – Options available to view or print tables in Excel spreadsheet form. Via “Table” buttons one can also open PDFs for full source documents (government reports) that contain these tables, presented in context within each report.

ProQuest …also used for Exercise 4.5 2.2 – ProQuest …also used for Exercise 4.5 Select desired date range. Article (for Ex. 2.2) must have been published in past 6 months! Use “Source Type” menu for limiting results to magazines or newspapers.

Example of search result (Exercise 2 Example of search result (Exercise 2.2) – make sure actual publication date of article you use for module 2 is no more than 6 months old!

2.3 – “SUMMON” search engine library.syr.edu Use “advanced search” for greater control over search results Book (for Ex. 2.3) must have been published in past 15 years!

2.3 Reminder: Do not use an ebook for this exercise.

2.3

You must make photocopies of the title page and the copyright page of the book you use. 2.3 Your SUID (the actual card) must appear on both of the photocopies.

2.3 See the PAF 101 Module 2 APA Guide for further guidance on proper book citation Note: Citation formatting for a book authored in entirety by one or more authors (who wrote entire book) is handled differently than citing a single book chapter within an edited book with each chapter separately authored by different people.

2.4 – Catalog of U.S. Government Publications http://catalog.gpo.gov

2.4 – Citing U.S. government publications can be very challenging because no single standard exists – and this leads to some variations in formatting examples appearing in different “how to cite” guides

2.5– U.S. Census Data http://www.census.gov “QuickFacts” will help you locate data needed for this exercise. http://www.census.gov/quickfacts When viewing ‘quick fact’ data for your home state (& home town, city or county) – after arriving at that data table, typing “united states” into the query window provides a column of national data for the entire U.S.

2.5– U.S. Census Data http://www.census.gov/quickfacts Within “QuickFacts,” data columns are created using the query window labeled “Enter state, county, city, town, or zip code.” To create a “United States” column, enter “United States.”

2.5– U.S. Census Data http://www.census.gov/quickfacts Within “QuickFacts,” the magnifying glass located next to a state or county name can take you to a list of additional datasets - helpful for identifying comparably sized counties or cities (cities & towns are called “places” by the Census Bureau).

2.5– U.S. Census Data http://www.census.gov Within “QuickFacts,” after clicking on that magnifying glass – additional data quicklinks appear. When determining a comparably sized county or city (cities & towns are called “places” by the Census Bureau), in other words, within 25% size of your home county or city/town, as required for module 2, links under “Population Estimates” will pull up alphabetical lists – such as Estimates for all counties [for New Mexico] OR Places [cities] in New Mexico listed alphabetically

2.5– U.S. Census Data http://www.census.gov/quickfacts Example of A-Z list of counties in New Mexico, including recent population data Select one that is within 25% size of your home county Return to the front end of the Quickfacts home page http://www.census.gov/quickfacts and enter that county name – to review data that meets requirements for this module 2 exercise This technique can ALSO be used to pull up a list of names of places [cities/towns] in your home state.

Keeping Track of Sources/APA Citation Style– PAF 101 Website Link to APA Citation guidance for PAF 101 (Module 2)

Keeping Track of Sources/APA Citation Style– Want More Examples of APA Style? For supplemental examples of APA citation style, consider also referring to: In-Text Citation – The Basics - Purdue OWL https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/02/ In-Text Citation – Authors – Purdue OWL https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/03/ For additional examples of citing government documents* Cornell University Library – How to Cite U.S. Government Documents - http://guides.library.cornell.edu/c.php?g=134360&p=880403 *Be wary, again, formatting suggestions for citing government publications tend to vary. Best advice is to pick a format presented by one guide, matching “type(s)” of government documents you are citing, and stick with that as much as possible.
