Creative Practice Page 113

When researching my topic on the internet, I received great results. I searched the words ‘Iraq War’ and I received a ton of results. These websites were mostly facts and information on the Iraq War. I was looking more for people’s views and opinions on the Iraq War. So I refined my search to ‘people’s opinions of the Iraq War’ and there was not sufficient information on people’s views. So my next idea was to look at the library catalog. I typed ‘Iraq War’ into the catalog search and there were 716 results found. I then tried typing in ‘opinions on Iraq War’ then ‘views on Iraq War’ and received useful information for my essay. My last search was the library’s database. There was no information about any wars or international affairs. The library database was pretty much useless to me for this topic.
