Unit 5: Digging into Databases and Books

2a.   Cannell Library Book Catalog

1.   Search terms: Patriot Act and Privacy and Rights
2.   Citation info: Gerdes, Louise, I., The Patriot Act: opposing viewpoints, Detroit, Greenhaven Press, 2005

4.   Circulating
5.   Cannell Second Floor, KF9430 .P38 2005
6.   The article was written 7 years ago however the Patriot Act has not changed much since I was written so it is still age credible. It includes biographical information and the author has been the editor of many books related to similar subjects. Opposing Viewpoints is a reputable publisher.

2.   Etzioni, Amitai, How Patriotic is the Patriot Act?: Freedom Versus Security in the Age of Terrorism., New York, Routledge, 2004

4.   Though it is a little aged the subject matter is still relevant. The author has written more than 30 books. Routledge publishes academic books, journals and online references.
5.   At the University of Washington Libraries it is located in the Odegaard Stacks and its call # is KF4850 .E899 2004.
6.   The search looks at many different colleges' libraries rather than just our own here at Clark.

  1. Hi, Christina:

    Good work. I hope you are able to use the searching skills we covered to locate useful and relevant books in the future. It's nice to know you have so many options at your fingertips. If you want to finish exploring IT Pro and Google books, I'll give you partial credit, or you can just move on to this weeks assignment on writing search statements.

    Cheers,
    Andrea
