Chapter 6
In reading chapter six, I was able to understand how much of an importance it is to not only refine an Internet search, but use other resources available. Today, the Internet has become a vital tool for any type of research. It is so accessible, that the Internet provides an outlet to several other sources, including blogs, dictionaries, and special websites tailored at a specific topic, however. Despite the Internets advantages, their are several other aids, especially found at the school library. Files, past newspaper articles, and journals are all accessible at the public library. As I read chapter six, I gained more of an awareness of the many resources found at the library alone. Like most students, the Internet is the easiest and most accessible tool to use for any type of project of paper. The library also has an online data base that allows users to browse through a variety of different sources, including magazines, books, and even government publications as well. The library is just as vital and even more of useful tool in today's technological era.

Hello Penny B:
I really enjoyed reading your post about Chapter 6. One of the cool things about San Jose State's library is that we can access its online database from home. I cannot count the number of times I have relied on the database for important research papers. Since our school consists of a large commuter population, I believe that it is important to make the library's resources accessible and MLK library does a great job in doing so. I liked how you stressed the importance of libraries; especially in this day and age when many individuals treat it like it's obsolete.
