Chapter 9


Chapter nine of the Bedford researcher was all about finding alternative sources.1st Peter chapter describes in detail how to use library sources such as browsing stacks checking out books and periodicals and using interlibrary loans to find sources not on the Internet. It also talks about using library periodically to find journal newspapers. Lastly it talks about using Library Reference Room to find bibliographies and indexes of other sources. The chapter really and goes out of its way to describe the importance of looking through citations and bibliographies to find related works that might be useful.
I think this chapter might have been more helpful had we looked at it earlier in the quarter. At this point I'm having more trouble organizing and determining reliability of the sources that I already have. I feel like that at this point I have so much information I don't really have time to go looking for more. If anything I feel like this would have been a really good place to start the quarter when we began our research on the project because it would have given us a broader view of the subjects out there instead of trying to refined search terms on the Internet.
