Molly Bires Week 10

This week I experimented with a few different  research tools. I was loyal to Google Scholar throughout undergrad because it also lead me to atleast one useful article. I also liked that I could link it with my school's library and online databases so I could see what I could get for free.
I like using Wikipedia as well but to find the sources in the wiki article and following those. Wikipedia is imbedded with great sources.
