Library Basic Training<br />
You may have completed Library Basic Training in a previous course. That’s great! This course will require extensive<br />

The Hunt Library’s Library Basic Training course is divided into three separate sections:<br />
1. 1. Introduction (introduces the services available)<br />
2. 2. Getting Started with Research (teaches how to use EAGLE search)<br />
3. 3. Focused Research (demonstrates how to access the databases and provides the steps for requesting<br />
items from the Hunt Library).<br />
You must complete each section in order before you will be allowed to move on to the next section. After completing<br />
the training, you will be emailed a certificate of completion in PDF format.<br />

<strong>Embry</strong> <strong>RSCH202</strong> Module 1 The Literature Review – Annotated Bibliography Assignment<br />
This assignment builds on material you should be familiar with from your prerequisite English course. Your<br />
assignment is to prepare an annotated bibliography using APA style on one of the following topics or another topic of<br />
interest to you from a business perspective:<br />
1. 1. Service quality<br />
2. 2. Product development<br />
3. 3. Open-market operations<br />
4. 4. Information systems<br />
5. 5. Manufacturing technology<br />
6. 6. Assessment centers<br />
7. 7. Transfer pricing<br />
Pick a topic that interests you and develop a good annotated bibliography following the instructions below. You will<br />
use the resources you find for this assignment in the Literature Review assignment in Module 2 and the Research<br />
Methodology assignment in Module 8. As you look for references in this assignment, keep in mind that the Literature<br />
Review and Research Methodology assignments will involve formulating a research question and designing a<br />
methodology to answer that question, so be thinking of interesting questions related to the topic you<br />
select—questions that you might want to explore further.<br />
From the text A Pocket Style Manual, APA Version, read the following:<br />
<br />
Chapter 6 § 6a: Maintaining a working bibliography, for compiling list of sources at the end of your paper<br />
<br />
Chapter 12 § 12e: Annotated bibliography (economics), to understand the reference list entry by<br />
summarizing the source<br />
<br />
Chapter 5: Evaluating sources, for specific tips on evaluating sources<br />
Note that you will probably need to refer to Chapter 14 of A Pocket Style Manual, APA Version, for formatting of<br />
different types of references. It is important that you pay close attention to formatting requirements.<br />
The assignment has two parts: 1) The list of sources, and 2) The annotation for each source. In the assignment you<br />
submit, the annotation for each source should immediately follow the listing of the source as shown in Chapter 12e of<br />
A Pocket Style Manual, APA Version.<br />
The list of sources must contain the following:<br />
1. 1. The subject of your research, which you must state at the top of the page.
