Voices of 1776: Quick Ways to Help Students and History Buffs Uncover Revolutionary Perspectives
This deep dive shows library professionals how to leverage Gale’s user-friendly interface to support complex research inquiries and help patrons trace the political, military, and social dynamics of early America. We will focus on surface-level and deep-archive search strategies that save time for both patrons and library staff.
Each registrant will also receive a curated resource list that shares relevant ebooks, articles, and streaming video from other NC LIVE resources.
Presenter: Hannah Roudebush is a Training Consultant from Cengage and brings over a decade of teaching experience from K-12 schools.
Learning Objectives:
- Teach patrons how to use advanced search filters to locate the lived experiences of citizens during the Revolution, moving research beyond the 'famous founders.'
- Help students and local history enthuasiasts connect major Revolutionary War milestones to local communities, regional narratives, and individual service records.
- Learn how to use the platform's built-in citation and export tools to streamline student and researcher workflows.
