Tips:
-
InfoTrack: Go there from "Bookmarks" on Netscape. Use
for current topics. Be sure to check the list to see if our library has
the actual issue. If so, fill out a request slip, if not, ask for permission
to print. Be sure to add it your Works Cited list.
-
Pamphlet File: When you're stuck...Be sure to check what
type of source you are using from the file.
-
Web Feet Index: Before you search the web. Be sure to
copy the URL exactly. You may surf there to check your "spelling"
of the URL, and for usefulness, but do the real reading/note taking at
home--be sure to add it your Works Cited list.)
-
Electronic Card Catalogue: For biographies, be sure to
use last name first. When it says "See...", do it.
