I had to do some research for my history class on Tuesday. Fortunately, my professor gave us the databases he wanted us to search for sources. I used Worldcat and MNCat for the first time. It sure beat the old look in the card catalog the way I used to have to do my research. I'm writing a paper on the battle of Antietem for my history class. I'm actually moving to Maryland in a year where I hope to get a job working for a museum, so this particular battle lends itself to helping me in multiple ways. It allows me to learn something about the state I will be living in, gives me a topic for class, and allows me to learn more about the civil war.
