1.                A.    In the reference room go to the shelves that have material on nursing—use the guide on p 66 of your text to find the exact call number area to go to—and select any two items.  Do not select the same kind of items—so don’t choose two dictionaries, or two handbooks etc. List the title, the author and the call number of the items and then write a brief paragraph for each item describing how you could use that tool for research—what kind of information it provides, how it is organized and can be used. Remember to also think of it in terms of information characteristics—analytical/factual… etc.
