That a good question and really what sites I would tell a patron to use first would really be based on what they are researching. But to start I would tell them to start with the facts. So that would be facts on file. Then I would tell hem to go to proquest to maybe see if there any scholarly journal on he subject. If it is a government subject then of course search the government sponsored websites. And one I love to use is LII.org were you can search a variety of heading. I would not recommend wikipedia for research only because it gives varied meaning which may not pertain to your subject that you are researching. And then the encyclopedia which really do give very good information.

Well yes we have gone over a lot of research site and information, the research question only drive me crazy when I have a hard time finding them. I have the erge to just Google a lot when I find it impossible to find the information that I am looking for and must admit is guilty of using it when all else fails. The information has been sometimes overwhelming, but has given the ability and the knowledge to go to a web site that I know would contain the information, I try to knowledge myself with the different search sites in order to know which one I should go to for certain information I am looking for. This class Hs given me so many different avenues in doing my research and a since of confidence in doing so as well

Reflection #8 Brainstorm
I would instruct other patrons in learning the Library to do the same as I did. I would give them an idea as to what classes are the best in my opinion and what I learn from. I would direct them to take a course in Library 3 because I feel this class would give them a fun way of learning how to do research and the basics of learning research and then Library 204 for which give you more detail on the certain search engines there are to use and how to use them. It gives you the knowledge of what information the different search site will provide you with. I must admit Library 204 is a brain teaser it will make you learn how to research and I must admit I don’t know much of what I need to, but I can get a research paper done if necessary.
