 ''Librarian briefly explains the difference between popular, trade and scholarly journals. Students are placed in small groups of four or five and assigned roles of reader, recorder, time keeper, and speaker.  Each group is given 15 minutes to read a brief article from a current news source and asked to locate the study referred to in the article. Each group is then given an opportunity to explain and demonstrate how they located, or attempted to locate, the primary source mentioned in the article.  The librarian acts as the facilitator and points out ways to approach finding the primary source material via the library resources or other appropriate mechanisms.''
