Well i thought when i choose this course it would be a breeze just the title "Library 3" makes you think how much could be required, well i was wrong. I have a new found appreciation for the any course that has "library" as a course. Since being in this class and doing all the research needed for each assignment has been a challange. As i stated before we always think that we know everything, but until you really have to apply your knowledge you find that there are more and better ways to research. I have always use the internet to do research by just typing in a keyword or phrase and what ever comes up i use, but taking this class has showed me a lot more ways and other avenues to use. From databases to various websites and most of all how to blog. Would i recommend this course, YES I say never under estimate a course with the title "Library"

I couldn't agree with you more! I have learned that when I have done "research" in the past that I had no clue of what "research" really was. I, too, just used the information that popped up when I googled a phrase or keyword. Now I wonder how much "false" information I put in previous research papers. This definitely hasn't been an easy class, but it's one that I really enjoy.
Hello Lenita!
I agree with you entirely. I never really used libraries or other sources on the internet for research. All of my research was done entirely through Google, Ask.com, and sometimes Yahoo. I hope that this class will help make things easier for you in the future. Won't it be great to help someone with a research paper and tell them, "I learned it from Library 3!"

I sooo agree. I said,"Hmm, Library...easy 3 units for me this summer." Boy was I wrong! Hahaha
This course was not only challenging and kept me up till 1am, but I am really having fun taking this course. It is very informative and our instructor has done an excellent job in developing an outline for us to understand and appreciate. Kudos to her!! I too, will never jump the gun on any course that has "Library" in it, or any course for that matter...
your so right, I have learn a great deak in taking this class and it has but my brain to work. I did research the same way you did at one time, but now I know so many other ways of doing reseach and the meaning behind the search tools we use. it has been a challenge but one I did not mind doing.
and I did not spell check that comment and being in a rush has misspelled some words, but you get the just of it LOL.....
I agree I learned alot more in this class than I thought that I would. There are alot more online resources than I thought there were.
