Based 0n what we’ve discussed in the past week, i’ve learnt just how ineffective google scholar is. I got nothing from the site, it didn’t help in the least. I also learnt about city tech’s vast research database made me proud to be a student at this school (for once). I also experienced first hand how unreliable it can be, because it didn’t work when i needed it to. I also learnt how effective worldcat can be, just a tad effective for books only. It has a neat feature that lets me see what books are available in the city tech libraryThis is something that is actually helping my research right now actually. I plan on taking out an online restraining order against google scholar, it has to stay 5 clicks away from any site i’m visiting at all times. I plan on going back to the research database more often(hope it’s working now).
