Embedded Librarian - sample On 11/2/2009 at 6:27 PM, John Dow wrote: I am doing my business plans on a microbrewery, do we have any beer specific or brewery specific periodicals? I was searching through the database and I could only find ones on restaurants, but not specifically for brew pubs. One that comes to my mind is "Beer Advocate.“ Thank you for your help. John.

What may be of more use here is to try to locate specific articles about breweries, and those could be in magazines and journals that aren't specifically related to beer production (e.g. there might be articles in those restaurant magazines). So: do some searching on your topic in research databases; I'd suggest starting with either ABI/Inform or Academic Search Complete. For everyone in the class: there's a subject guide to business plan research available on the UW Libraries site, at Many of the links off this guide are to free sites (e.g. you don't need a UW ID to log on).

Independent Learning and Discussion - sample I think this is very useful personally. I love the fact that I'm able to translate Farsi/Persian poetry. Even though I know it is very difficult to translate poetry, the fact that I can get the general meaning of it makes me happy. It is also a useful tool for my Spanish class, I'm very happy that I learned how to do this because the other translating tool I have been using is very off. Business wise I see this is useful in the sense of being able to translate text at your fingertips versus finding someone and waiting for them to translate it for you. It saves time, and it makes things more fast and efficient in my opinion. I love technology even more now that I've found out how to use this.

Interactive Activities - samples “I think that this is a great idea. The fact that the business will be open on Saturdays will easily set you apart from your competitors. So many people would benefit from having the extra day of operation. I think that some sort of "medical" staff on board might need to be taken into consideration for opening costs.” “I LOVE your idea for your proposed hours. I have friend who has a child in child care and she is always rushing to pick up her daughter because she has to be picked up by 5:45 pm everyday. Her and her ex boyfriend, who have shared custody, have to also work schedules to fit their shared custody days as well as the daycare's schedule. To me it seems very inconvenient and I don't understand why more daycares don't have better hours! Your idea would be very popular and profitable with the right location.”

Unrelated but Feeling Good The best thing I learned would have to be the Access chapter. The job I work uses Access so much to keep track of survey records and survey results. Just this afternoon at work there was a problem with running the query on turned in surveys. I get surveys mailed to me then I enter them into Access and it puts the data like survey ID and date turned in into an Access Database and each day I run a daily report on how many were turned in. There is usual a conditional query that asks me to enter the date and it pulls up all the surveys for that date, today the query wasn't asking me the date and that was because the condition for the date was entered as 11/30/09 and it should have been [Date] so that way it would allow me to type in the date and pull that specific days surveys up. I brought this to the attention of the project manager and told her that I could fix it, because of what we had just learned. It felt good to know that this class has helped me become a more knowledgeable employee.
