Lesson 3 Part 2 Challenge

I use LibGuides about as often as I use print resource guides or bibliographies. Hardly ever. Through this lesson though, I re-familiarized myself with a few that I will start to use, for myself and also for the public. Under Library Information, both the Connect at Central and E-Reader Info guides are very helpful. I will definitely start to use these with patrons.  Under What to Read, I found the genre guides to be helpful. As far as Staff LibGuides, I find the Circulation Guide to be extremely helpful! Thanks to Laura and her staff for keeping this updated. Recently I've had to refer to the Internet Filtering LibGuide and I thought it was well-done. 

Lesson 3 Part 1 Challenge

A SAC art student came into the library to do research for her American Art History class. The assignment was to write a 5-page paper on Sports in Art.  While researching George Bellows in the database Art Source, she became interested in his boxing paintings. To find information on Jack Dempsey and some of the other boxers in the paintings, she used Biography in Context. In addition, the student used Opposing Viewpoints to include a short section on the way boxing was perceived in early 20th century America. 

Lesson 2 Part 3 Challenge Outlook

I already had a signature created but it didn't have our tagline. Oops.

Lesson 2 Part 2 Challenge 2. Done.

Lesson 2 Part 2 Challenge 1

I snipped this from Siri Looft's blog, Olive Hummer. She is a Swedish vegetarian chef who loves beautifully simple food and who curses freely. Snipping was a snap. I had forgotten all about this tool.
