I recall simpler times when I used Word in Windows 95. There were fewer features to learn and things seemed much simpler. But were they really? Today we are all using Word 2013 in Windows 10 O/S and the amount of tools and features can be overwhelming!
My hope that when you read this part of the bulletin you will leave feeling more at ease about the content that I share with you. My hope is that I provide you and your student’s pathways to quality digital resources and tools.
Since there are an overwhelming number of great resources for me to share with you, in this issue of the bulletin I plan to focus on Topic Finder.

Topic Finder is a tool found within many (not all) of the Gale databases. Since introducing it to staff and students who have been using the basic feature of this powerful tool, I have received very positive feedback regarding time and ease of access to credible information. At this stage, patrons of Tri County are only using a fraction of the power of this tool.
