The Schwerdtfeger Library announces the following workshops during the month of October. Staff and students are invited to attend:

Research Databases in the Atmospheric Sciences

The UW-Madison libraries subscribe to the primary research databases for the atmospheric and related sciences. Web searching will typically not yield the journal articles you seek because this material is indexed by and found primarily in proprietary databases. The workshop will introduce you to databases specific to your discipline, define what they contain and do not contain, teach you how to search them effectively and locate articles of interest. We'll also review some important features of MadCat.

Date	Time	Location
Monday, 4 October 2004	3:00-4:30pm	Room 351, SSEC
Wednesday, 13 October 2004	3:30-5:00pm	Room 811, AOS
