Inquiry: An Annotated Bibliography

My process has been a bit scattered, but I have really learned to use Library Research 2.0 techniques to find the information I need. I searched on Google scholar, Google books, Google plus, social bookmarking sites, and library databases. This is my research so far.
Further Reading
  • Brown, John Seely. ("Growing Up Digital: How the Web Changes Work, Education, and the Ways People Learn". USDLA Journal, 2002).This journal article expresses the ways technology has changed work, education, and learning in history as well as in the digital age. History shows us that change takes a long time, but with the internet, change can come much more quickly. This work demonstrates the importance of learning how to navigate the internet to find information. [I found this by searching Google Scholar and realized that it contains excellent information to convince our audience of the importance of utilizing digital tools to find information.]
  • Accardi, Maria T., Drabinski, Emily and Kumbie, Alana (Critical Library Instruction: Theories and Methods. Library Juice Press, 2010.) This book explains new theories and methods for library instruction. It includes stories of critical approaches put into practice in institutional settings in the virtual world. [I found information for this book on Maria Accardi's blog and thought it would be an excellent resource for finding new methods of library research in this digital age. 
  • ("7 Things You Should Know About RSS". Educause Learning Initiative, April 2007). Covers an excellent overview of RSS and how to use it. [I found a link to this page on a presentation by  Maria Accardi, a researcher interested in Library Research 2.0. I am including it because it is important to know how to use RSS to consume information in Library Research 2.0]
