Lightning Talk

Description

This Lightning Talk would discuss the frustration I've felt with traditional materials designed to teach students the difference between Scholarly and Popular Journals. Even when materials address trade publications, they rarely if ever promote them positively. As a Business Librarian, I know that such journals are vitally important in the Business disciplines so I set out to create a very brief video on Scholarly vs Trade vs Popular journals designed especially for business students. My talk would discuss the perceived need, the creation process, and it reception/use since creation. I would provide a link to the video if there was not time to show it.
