For October 2nd’s English and Speech class session, we went to the library on the 4th floor atrium. The library has a lot of helpful tools for us students to use whenever we need to. One of the most important things that students need to do is activate their ID and use it as a personal library card. I will try to get my library card activated as soon as possible. During our library session, we learned to research topics. We were given the Brooklyn Theater Fire as a topic to research and we found a lot of information on the internet. We learned to determine which articles of information is credible and which can be biased. When we tried looking for the Brooklyn Theatre Fire in the library catalog, we hit a dead end. I tried numerous search options and I found nothing. I even looked in all of the CUNY libraries and I got nothing. That was pretty disappointing because I didn’t expect to find zero items on that topic. However, the library still has thousands of books for us students to rent and if there isn’t a book available it’s probably at a different CUNY. The class session overall was informative and it’s going to help alot when I need to research a topic for a future class project or speech.
