Resources for ALA Program: Why Can't Johnnie and Jane Get Published: Part 2, Research Methodologies

Description: Johnnie and Jane (librarians) gained a better understanding of research basics from the ALCTS program, “Why Can’t Johnnie and Jane Get Published, Research Basics,” held in Toronto in June 2003 and are ready to conduct their first research project. Led by a panel of experts, Trisha Davis, Claudia Gollop, Peggy Johnson, and Barbara Moran, this program will provide an overview of format of a research paper, in-depth presentations and discussions on selecting appropriate research methodologies to carry out the project, data collection procedures, presentation of analysis, and get the research findings published in a referred journal. This is an interactive program. The audience will have opportunities to interact with the panel and with other participants through group discussions and Q&A sessions.
