While reading Badke I gained a bettwr understanding about databases and search engines. The most important thing I learned is when searching for research remember to be precise on what your using to search. The more detail you are with what you search the better the answers. Badke gives an example of “rock” the term rock could be a solid object but also be used in the sense of rocking a chair. Being general in a search would make your life harder in finiding the perfect information needed for your research. Badke also provided websites that are great databases but given that the cuny library also has a great collection of databases for almost every type of research I find it better.
