Announcements
Today is the first of two days of instruction and practice doing library research at Geneseo. Both are intended to help you find sources for your Enigma essays.
To that end, you should be forming research questions now, and have one firm enough to start researching by Monday.
Notice in the essay handout that by Monday evening you need to email me a list of sources you expect to use for your essay. You won’t be limited to just that list, the idea is to be submitting IDS requests for anything on it that you can’t immediately get from our library by Monday evening too.
And aim to finish reading Enigma by Monday.
Introduction to Library Research
Led by Dr. Jonathan Grunert of Fraser Hall Library.
- Today: introduction to library databases and search strategies.
- Monday: “lab day” for doing your own research, with someone available to answer questions and help out.
Bring computers to class!
