The winner of the last month's Choice competition was Joan, who won 2 movie tickets. Congratulations Joan!
The answers for the Choice competition were:
1. The corresponding online article was 'Organic Baby Food Review', which was dated 30th November, 2011. Note the discrepency between the publishing dates of the online and hardcopy article. Sometimes the articles are published at slightly different times and both the title and the contents may vary.
2. If a customer was looking for information on a recalled product, you would direct them to the 'Media and News' section and then look under the sub-heading of 'Product Recalls'.
3.Customers will only be able to access full reports if they sign in with the email and password logins.
4. To quickly browse recent articles on baby food, you would direct the customer to go to 'Reviews and Tests', then scroll down to 'Babies and Kids' and select 'Food for Kids'. You can then view the Top 10 Popular Articles and Top 10 Recent Articles.
This month's database of the month is the
Australian/New Zealand Reference Centre
(
ANZRC). ANZRC is a full-text database that covers Australasian newspapers, magazine, refernce books, biographies and an image collection of over 592,000 photos, maps, and flags. If you would like to participate in a training session for the ANZRC database, please contact Ann.
TO HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE AT WINNNG MORE MOVIE TICKETS answer the questions about the ANZRC database below:
1. What subjects would the ANZRC be useful for?
2. How would you find some photos of Julian Assange arriving at the High Court in London for his extradition hearing?
3. A customer wants to browse through articles that were published in the Australian Geographic, Issue no. 84, October-December, 2006. How would you find this information?
4. How would you find Leo Shanahan's article on Gina Rinehart that was published in The Australian on the 14/9/2011? What is the title of the article?
5. A customer wants some information on Sue Fear, the Australian mountaineer who fell to her death in 2006, whilst descending the summit of Manaslu in Nepal. You type 'Sue Fear' into the search box, but the articles that are returned have nothing to do with Sue Fear (instead you are getting articles that are relate to 'fear' or 'Sue'). What would be a good strategy to use to get more acurate 'hits'?
If you can't answer these questions, you definitely need training in the ANZRC database! Even if you don't know all the answers, have a go at answering the questions anyway, and be in the running for more free movie tickets. Rayyan.
