This guide collects a few resources that will help you with the library assignments for FS 100 with Gina Bowers. It reviews and supplements what we discussed in the library class on 2/20/2024.
Here's what you can find in this guide:
- Databases: A direct link to EBSCO (the database shown in class), a very quick recap of the librarian's tips for effective searching, and two videos with more information about database searching.
- Scholarly Articles: Review what we discussed in class about what scholarly articles are, and access a video and an interactive tutorial with more information about how to read and understand scholarly articles.
- Catalog Search: A video reviewing how to search the library catalog, and a link to the catalog itself.
- Web Searching: Review of how to limit a Google search to .edu or .gov, plus additional web searching tips.
- MLA Citations: The library's guide to citation, with examples of how to cite different source types.
