Designed to accompany the library handbook for freshman students at Rochelle Township High School, this workbook includes a variety of purposeful activities to reinforce the learning of basic library research skills and the use of tools. Topics covered include: how the Dewey Decimal System works; how to use the card catalog; how to locate books in the library and use basic sources of information, such as encyclopedias, yearbooks, dictionaries, almanacs, atlases, biographical sources, literary indexes, books of quotations, and Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature. Each exercise is accompanied by a set of questions for which students are expected to provide written answers. (JPF)
