Library

So the library resource presentation.  Again.  Nothing against the library or its staff, but this is at least the fourth time that I've seen it, and it is always the same.  Oh well.  

Well, I looked up two sources on their databases.  One of them was on American National Biography Online, which, as the name suggests, puts biographies of Americans online.  The biography I found was of an artist named Walter Pach.  The biography wasn't extremely detailed, but neither was it fact-lacking.  It was fairly similar to a standard wikipedia article.  However, that is one thing that was worth mentioning.  Unlike wikipedia, this biography was very well researched, and provided a complete bibliography at the  end.

The other source that I found was the July 2nd, 1902 issue of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram (although then it was the Mail-Telegram), on America's Historical Newspapers.  One of the things that I can't ever get over when I'm looking at historical newspapers is how limited the articles are.  The paper I looked at was one page, and more than half of it was ad space.  That doesn't leave much room to tell what's going on in the world.  However, as far as the source went, it was pretty good.  I understand that many online newspapers are hard to read, however, this one was quite legible.  It was fairly good resolution, and overall good quality.
