CSC Introduction to Computers and Their Applications Information Literacy Lecture 3 – Information Resources

Information Resources The library remains our most important information resource, although the manner in which we get our information has changed. Any search for information should start with the University’s web site.

Books ALICAT is the primary to start a search of the Adelphi University libraries when searching for books, videos, and other library materials, start with the Adelphi Libraries' local collection by using ALICAT. Some will provide only article citations, which may include a link to the full text of the article. But others may also include the author's abstract that summarizes the article.

Searching Books Searching Books

Databases Databases provide a useful research resource for college-level work. Databases are organized in a way that allows the contents to be retrieved by a search. Most databases are specific to one subject, but there are others are multi-subject. Academic Search Complete, Omnifile full test and the Proquest Research Library Collection are examples of of multisearch databases.

Searching A Database

An Article In HTML

An Article In PDF

Some Databases Only Supply A… Citation – contains all the information that you need to find the published article, i.e., author, title of article, title of journal, volume and issue #, and page(s). Abstract – a summary (usually one paragraph) of the article’s contents.

A Subject Database Subject databases allow the user to search for articles in a particular discipline. This avoids the problem of “information overload”

Searching Subject Databases

Scholarly vs. Popular Periodicals Scholarly Journals Academic/scholarly in scope Written by faculty/scholars Research articles References and bibliography Scholarly language Written for researchers/students Articles are peer-reviewed Popular Magazines News/general interest in scope Written by reporters/ freelancers/anonymous Public interest articles Few bibliographic references Conversational language Written for the general public Articles reviewed by editorial staff
