Frequently Asked Question:
Q: My instructor says not to use the 'web'. How can I find articles without the internet?
A: You can but it is difficult. Good luck!
Seriously, the internet and the 'web' are not the same. The internet is the system that delivers the website, or commonly called the 'web', to you. When you put your terms in your browser the list of websites are brought to you through the internet. You cannot use whatever sites are returned because anyone can put anything on the internet. You have to know what your source is.
Now the internet also delivers the LCCC catalog and databases. These are sources that have been reviewed by
librarians. We can explain to you how to determine the validity of your
source and guide you to exactly what you are looking for..
Your cell
phone is a good example. It is a delivery system. You can get a text
message from a friend who has tickets to a Cavs game and asks if you
can go or a text message informing you that you have inherited $50,000
and you can call the 900 number listed to claim it. Which source do
you believe?
