Researching Projects and Sufficiencies II
Think back to all the so-so sequels: Scream 2, Speed 2, anything above Rocky 2. Well, this is the exception to the rule. Announcing... Researching Projects and Sufficiencies II: Advanced Database Searching. It's the new sequel to the Researching Projects and Sufficiencies I class that you've learned to love. In this class, taught by library leading man Chris Cox, you'll get step-by-step, hands-on searching experience with some of Gordon Library's various databases, including FirstSearch, CompendexWeb, INSPEC, and others. The class will meet for 1 hour in the Gordon Library Training Room on Tuesday, January, 26 from 11 am - 12 noon and Thursday, January 28 from 3 - 4 pm. You don't need to have seen/taken the original class. However, just like any good movie, space is limited, so you have to sign up ahead of time. You can register for a session at the library reference desk, or on the Web at http://www.WPI.EDU/Academics/Library/Training/. There are no car chases (unfortunately), you don't need a ticket (Yeah! No lines!), and you don't get any popcorn (bummer). But you will learn the research skills you need to succeed on your IQP, MQPs and Sufficiencies...and that's as much as you can ask from any sequel.
