Recearch Obstacles

Normally, I dont have a hard time at all finding resources for whatever research problem or question I am working, but normally I usually turned to articles and journals that I can find on the internet to help me with my research. This was not the case today when I was trying to find books on recruiting minority students to college campuses. It took me longer than usual to find some good candidates in the library. After a bit of tweaking using the advanced research database for books I was able to find three books that might be of use to me. One book was located in the multicultural resource center in the library which I didnt even know existed. I was pleasantly surprised to know that SCSU had a special section for multiculturalism, but I have to admit I was a little dissapointed when I went to retreive my book at the size of the section. It was so small, I would say less than a full walls space worth of books. It was kind of off tucked away in a little corner in the back of the library. But hey I guess a small section is better than no section at all. The other two books I was able to find easily in the basement of the library. I even found another book in the section that I wasnt even looking for that might be helpful. Overall once I was able to refine my search in the database for books, I didnt have to hard of a time researching possible books. Although I still prefer to use articles and scholarly journals.
