Remember: Librarians Are Your Friends! LIBRARIES Public libraries Specialized libraries College/university Law, medical, business Organizations Remember: Librarians Are Your Friends! They can keep you from going crazy…

Catalog Periodical Database Listing of all books, periodicals, and other resources owned by a library Periodical Database Research aid that catalogues articles from journals or magazines

Abstract Reference Work Summary of an article, written by someone other than the original author Reference Work Work that synthesizes related information for researchers

Types of Reference Works Encyclopedias Dictionaries Quotation books Biographical aids Atlases

Internet Search Aids Search Engine A search aid such as Google that indexes Web pages and checks them for sites that match a researcher’s request. Virtual Library A search aid that combines Internet technology with traditional library methods of cataloguing and assessing data.

Evaluating Internet Documents When you step into the Internet, don’t leave your brain at the door! KEEP IN MIND…….. Authorship Sponsorship Recency

Interviews  BE FLEXIBLE!! What’s your purpose? (don’t waste their time or yours) What are your questions? (avoid closed-ended, leading, hostile, stupid questions) How will you transcribe the information? (notes vs. tape-recorder)  BE FLEXIBLE!!

Research Tips Start early Make a preliminary bibliography Take notes efficiently Don’t get sidetracked Distinguish between direct quotations, paraphrases, and your own ideas
