Whether you are new to college research, or need a refresher and skills boost, there is a Library workshop for you. Two workshops take place this week, each with two time options for your convenience. No need to RSVP, just choose a time and log in.
Research Survival 101

- http://scadconnect.scad.edu/researchsurvival101/
- Does writing research papers feel like an impossible task? Are you full of great ideas, but not sure how to get them down on paper? Do trustworthy, professor-approved sources seem to elude you? If you answered YES to any of the above questions, attend Research Survival 101 online! Intended for those who are new to college-level research, this interactive workshop will provide practical strategies for staying organized, focused, and creative with research assignments. Come ready to share ideas and questions.
Advanced Research Survival
- Online: Sunday, April 17th @ 5pm / Tuesday, April 19th @ 8pm
- http://scadconnect.scad.edu/adv_researchsurvival/
- You’re a research survivor – now take your skills to the next level. This interactive online workshop is intended for anyone who is already familiar with the SCAD library catalog and databases, but wants to go beyond the basic resources. We will discuss practical tips such as constructing advanced keyword strings, “hacking” Google to discover interesting library resources, obtaining items from non-SCAD libraries, and more. Ideal for those writing senior and graduate theses, and anyone who wants to improve their searching overall.
Thank you for offering this research workshop! See you on Sunday.
