Research Topic ISU – The Picture of Dorian Gray

Inquiry Process 1) Focus 2) Explore 3) Anaylze 4) Share

Research – Databases vs. Google

Google You will find a lot of information Questionable Authority Difficult to focus search May take a long time to find quality research

Databases Professionally Published Information Identifiable authority Peer Reviewed Easy search parameters Quick Access to Quality Information Available as part of our virtual “Learning Commons” which means it is available 24/7 from anywhere.

Google Authority Implications Google: Good for quickly finding non-controversial, personal interest sites. For example a movie homepage. Google: Not useful for finding factual, academic information scholarly or controversial topics. For example Rites of passage or Greece Economic Crisis. A bias influence towards “page spammers” and sites that generate revenue for Google.

Topic- The Picture of Dorian Gray When I search on Google the above topic…. 442,000 (results) Lots of sponsored links ($$$) Google News Some websites are useful, some poor/biased/outdated sources You will loss a lot of time assessing page content to assure quality information!

On-Line Databases Time Saver Recommended Sites: (All found on our library website at 1. JSTOR – Access to academic journals, books. Also many different subject areas. 2. Google scholar – academic journals

OUR NEW WEBSITE

What is JSTOR?

JSTOR is a digital library of more than 1,900 academic journals, 19,000 books, and 2 million primary sources. JSTOR is a service of ITHAKA (ithaka.org), a not-for- profit organization that helps the academic community use digital technologies to preserve the scholarly record and to advance research and teaching in sustainable ways. What is JSTOR?

All of the content licensed or purchased by a library is cross-searchable on JSTOR. Journals, books, and pamphlets on JSTOR are all full- text. All the materials on JSTOR are scholarly and academic. Almost all journals are peer-reviewed. However, some journal issues pre-date today's standard peer-review process, and some are literary/primary materials – these would not have gone through a peer review process. How does JSTOR work?

JSTOR The link for JSTOR is located on our school website, on the library page, under e-resources, databases. Or you can go directly to e-resources, databases. The link on our school library website allows all students and teachers to access the database from anywhere in our school location. Remote access has also been set-up for JSTOR but you must follow the instructions below- Instructions for Users using remote access – To access JSTOR remotely, follow this access token registration link: To be able to use the database from home you must set-up an account.

JSTOR continued Subsequent access, users may go directly to and select "Login" at the top of the page to enter JSTOR with their username and password. They may access JSTOR via this account from any location. Note that each user must register their own MyJSTOR account through the access token registration link to access full-text content on JSTOR.

Google Scholar What is good and not so good about this site? The Good Academic Articles, peer reviewed, many great tools (e.g. pdf articles, to self, share, similar topics etc.) The Bad NOT ALL ARTICLES ARE FREE.
