Chapter 6

In chapter 6 I think the most interesting thing I read was about how to write an efficient paper. After taking the online quizzes I realized how helpful the library could be so useful. In chapter 6 the whole chapter told the reader how to write a paper step by step and how to research online. This chapter will definitely help everyone out especially with our paper coming up. This chapter was somewhat similar to the online tutorial because it taught us what we needed to know about the online process and how to use it to our best advantages. The online tutorial opened my eyes to how resourceful the website could be and how I do not have to go to the library in order to research a certain topic. In chapter 6 it also says “it is a good idea to ask a reference librarian at your library for help in carrying out your research”. (pg 155) This quote is really true because the librarians know best about which method is best for your topic. Not only do we have to research online but we can find any resource that could help us, such as journals, maps, encyclopedias and even local organizations too. Online there are also many websites that describe the research process which would definitely help students like us. On this website, Find and Develop a Research Topic, I found gave a lot of advice such as “if you are finding too much information and too many sources, narrow your topic by using and operator” All three sources that I have read today have told me the exact same thing and I think those are definitely going to help me out in the future
