Chapter Eight - Searching for Information with Digital Resources

In this chapter the point is clearly put on to the preparation of your search, how to use a online library catalog, use of databases, and how too search for sources using websites. These are all digital resources that can be very helpful in today's "online" world. All of these ways of researching are only helpful if you know how to differ from help resources and unhelpful ones. This means finding reliable websites and documents that are proven to be useful and scholarly. Knowing when a resource is reliable and useful for your topic is the most helpful thing you could know how to do when your using a digital resource. This chapter was helpful in explaining digital resources because it went in depth to explain what they are and how they are helpful. It was helpful to me because i now have more of a understanding of how to identify the helpful resources that can be found all throughout the internet.
