Britannica Part 2
I work in a public library, so I thought I would check out the public library edition of Britannica briefly tonight while I was working on the other resources we had been asked to look at. I decided to use "Darfur" as my example. I had noticed some other librarians had used even more current examples and Britannica didn't have a lot of information in the alternate section. Even Darfur didn't have a lot of results--only one website? Really? And some of the media results were a little off to me, because I wasn't entirely sure how they connected with the Darfur situation. The academic edition of Britannica seemed to have better results, but there were also more to wade through.
