almondbutterandjelly Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Back in the dark ages, we used the Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature to find magazine articles for research papers. What do teens/college students use now? I assume it's not just Google? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milknhoney Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Yes, I used to use an actual CARD catalog to locate articles on microfiche! I was totally clueless about what to do nowadays but wanted my son to be able to use articles rather than whole long books to do his WWS assignments, so I actually had to break down and ask our librarian how it is done. It's all right there on the library website after I log in! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrar Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Well that’s certainly a blast from the past. Agreed with 8 - online databases through the library. Get a librarian to help the first couple of times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
