IL Objectives

Hands-on tutorial (WVG and Library staff to lead)

IL Assignment 1

Use the CONSORT catalogue to locate books and audiovisual materials on the subject of the Civil Rights movement of the 1960’s. Demonstrate the utility of the sort by relevance feature of the CONSORT catalogue by discussing the correlations between your search terms and the indexing terms of both highly relevant and somewhat relevant hits.

Use the indexing terms for two highly relevant sources to expand your search to encompass subjects related to your search terms. Did the indexing terms highlight specific subtopics that you could use to focus your search question? Identify several subtopics from the results of your searches that could be researched further.
