IB 20 HOTA

Today was your first chance to go to the Library and start doing some preliminary research for your IA. You should finalize your research question today, to make your life easier. We're booked into a computer lab tomorrow so we won't have the luxury of signing books easily from the library. Make sure that you have your Calgary Public Library card. You can get your The Alberta Library (TAL) card from your local CPL branch. Get this done! You need to do some in person research at the University of Calgary library as well. Talk to the librarians, they will teach you how to access electronic journals and JSTOR articles, which you will need to write a successful IA.
