Lesson 4

Proquest -
I researched Rheumatoid Arthritis. There were literally tons of articles - some in different languages. I liked the "Sort Results By" so that I could narrow down what I really was looking for within that topic.

1a. I read "Library, Coffee and Chocolate" and it seemed like we found the same info. Or rather used it in the same way. Searching for a topic, seeing where it came from.

I wear several hats..... mother, wife, librarian, newspaper editor - just to name a few. So, I searched editor and found that they have all the copies of Editor and Publisher magazine from 1992 - present. While I might not ever feel the need to read it, I might run into a situation where I would want to know how others handled it. I did a quick search on a few of those, and I did find articles addressing them and how they were handled. I learned something new today!!!

  1. Hi, Hamlin! We are always happy to help someone learn something new. ProQuest is a great research tool for HS through adults. It has a simple but powerful search mechanism and provides general, scholarly, or trade articles in full text. Thanks for your comments!
