Research MeeeeeSearch

The librarian who came to class gave a great lecture on how to use the SFSU library website to find books, articles, and thesis' as research for our 505 topics. Although I was able to have a tutorial about using the SFSU library website last semester, I didn't utilize this resource. I hope that this semester I will use this resource to its fullest potential. What's great about using the library website is that there are so many options and paths you can explore to find research on your topic. Not only can you find research through DAI, but you can go into other subtopics which fall under your research topic. For instance if you write about a non-profit you can go into another sector which encases studies and research on that non-profit or on the kind of organization it is. 

The only thing that annoys me is the fact that you cannot just go into the library to find books. You cant get a book, sit down, look through it and figure out whether you want it or not, then go back and find more. Now because of the renovations, students have to request books, wait a day, then figure out from there if the materials are worthwhile. It's a much longer process.
