Week 2 - Assignment
Information Literacy
Prior to beginning work on this assignment, review the Research Guides and Tutorials under
the Getting Research help tabs in the Ashford University Library.
Prepare: Knowing how to thoroughly research a topic is extremely
important while achieving your education. You may be asked to support your
information with peer-reviewed scholarly resources, but how can you find this
type of resource? The Ashford University Library allows you to search through
different avenues to find the requested types of resources. You can narrow your
search by the author, year published, title, subject, and by indicating what
type of resource you are looking for. You even have access to a librarian if
you need some guidance in finding more resources on your topic.
Reflect: Given that you have been in college for a while, it’s time
to reflect on what you have learned through the use of the Ashford University
Library in relation to how you learned to acquire new information from a
variety of sources.

In a two- to three-paragraph response with each paragraph
