How to use the eLibrary database to locate Cliff Schneider’s essay “I’m Still Learning From My Mother.”

J I recommend you check off these steps as you complete them.

____1. Go to our S.C.C. campus website (http://www.scc.spokane.edu).

____2. Once there click on the "library" link (down the left side of the screen).

____3. Next click on Databases A to Z, under the heading "Library Databases."

____4. Scroll down the list of databases to “eLibrary” and click on it.

____5. If you are off campus, enter your Student Identification Number (SID) as your Library Card Number and click "continue."

____6. Click on the words “Advanced Search located just above the left-hand side of the white strip.

____5. When the new screen appears, scroll down below “More Search Options” and type into the Document Title strip “I’m Still Learning from My Mother”; then type “Schneider” in the Author’s Name strip. After checking your entries for accuracy, click on the green “Advanced Search” button a bit further down on the left.

____6. If all has gone well, you should be looking at the article’s title in a blue font.

____7. Click on the blue-font title to email, print, or read the article.

____8. Now collect the proper citation for the article if you plan to use any of it in your essay.

____9. To do this, first find the words “Citation View” (in a green font) toward the top of the screen and click. You now should be looking at a suggested MLA and APA citation for the article. UNFORTUNATELY, the citation information is NOT in the proper format.

___10. BUT you can fix it: Click on the word “Edit” just above the left-hand side of the citations. When the screen changes, find the “author” strip and replace what’s there with the words Schneider, Cliff (not underlined).

___11. When you have Schneider, Cliff in the “author” strip, scroll down and click on the green “Update Citation” button.

___12. In a few seconds, the correctly-formatted MLA and APA citations should appear.

___13. If you were to use this article in your essay, you would copy-and-paste the MLA version into the Works Cited page at the end your essay. (Note: we use the MLA format in English 101, but you may well need to use the APA format when writing in your major field.)
