MSU Information Landscape

As a freshmen at Murray State University, the library is a place that I visit very often for studying and researching. Understanding the information landscape at MSU is vital to my survival in the next four years. Until the discussion in class, I never knew how much the school had to offer!

First of all, the library has a great website that will help you find major databases for research, quicklinks for popular searches, and pretty much anything else you would like to know about the libraries at MSU. It gives you access to Racer Track which gives employment opportunities, and also Racer Communication Center to help improve speeches and presentations for free! It would be a shame for a student not to utilize all of these resources as they are easily accessible. We are so lucky to have the information landscape we do, and I'm sure all MSU students benefit from the resources. Here is an article that further explains the importance of information landscape. http://www.fcc.gov/info-needs-communities
