19. SU Libraries Homepage -
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.

20. Four (4) Crucial Starting Points
SU Libraries Homepage -
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

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

22. 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

23. 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.

24. 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.

25. 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!

26. 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!

27. 2.3
Reminder: Do not use an ebook for this exercise.

28. 2.3

29. 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.

30. 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.

31. 2.4 – Catalog of U.S. Government Publications

32. 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

33. 2.5– U.S. Census Data http://www.census.gov
“QuickFacts” will help you locate data needed for this exercise.
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.

34. 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.”

35. 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).

36. 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

37. 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 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.

Link to APA Citation guidance for PAF 101 (Module 2)

39. 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
In-Text Citation – Authors – Purdue OWL
For additional examples of citing government documents*
Cornell University Library – How to Cite U.S. Government Documents -
*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.
