Post four: research area two on roman public libraries

Post four: research area two

This week I started my research into area 2 of my studies into public roman libraries also looking at public libraries in places such as Britain Australia and the united states however before I did this later in the week I needed to finish off collecting resources for the seconds half of area one which was modern public libraries I had to finish collecting resources from all the website I collected on modern public libraries that I put under my links on my blog there was not really a hole lot of information I found on modern public libraries as I had to search each individual website.

In area two I looked for information about American, British and Australian public library in databases on the Swinburne library website such as encyclopedia Britannica and i also looked through websites using goggle such engine as well as using my local libraries catalogue to perform title and advance searches to find book, periodicals and dvd on area 2. I will post at the bottom of this post pictures of the different libraries and more media on roman public libraries next week I’m going to put some screen shots of books I found up on my blog and start looking at similarities of the British, American and Australia websites against the roman public libraries however this week I just stated my research on American, Australian and British public libraries. I also need to go into my local library and ask the reference librarian if they can help me find more information on roman public libraries.
