Library Visit

As for the Library Vist, I went to the library in Lakewood (Angelo M. Iacoboni) located at 4990 Clark Ave. Lakewood, Ca 90712. The website to the library is www.colapublib.org. Their phone number is (562) 866-1777. As for this library is a Public library; they also required user to have their library card # to access online database, internet access user, and to check out items. The building is 25,000 square feet and has a meeting room that is available for rental which can hold a capacity of 125 people.

The Lakewood Library provides many sort of material that is available to check out to public. Like for example, DVDs, books on CDs, Fictions and non-fiction books, teen’s novels, and many more. Not only does the Lakewood library provide those but they also have Library online catalog, public access internet computer, and children programs. The library also have reference desk that are located straight in the back once you walk in from the entrance. Next to the reference desk in the back are the books of resources that are available. The library also has an electronic /online government publication and different nationality resources center.

While I was at the library, I notice that the library have a homework center for children and adults to do their homework or work. They also have a place for family to be together, computer center, and live homework helper. Those are not the only thing that I like best about the library. I also like how this library has volunteer people to help with the library and children. They also have programs for children as in tutoring and best of all is that the library has a self-check out machine where you can check your book/ items out by yourself. The only thing that I least like about the library is that the entrance door is heading out the street instead of the parking area. The reason why I didn’t like about that is because on rainy days we would have to walk a little distance from the parking to the door. By that time we would be all wet. Beside that everything else is good.

Blog Reflection 1

As of right now i have learned alot from this course, like for example on how to search for things by using the electronic search engine. I think that learning things from this class can be really useful in my continuing college education. one of the useful tips that i can besure to use is how to find things online through our LBCC library webpage by using the online catalog, find articles and other online resources, and using the library services that is being provided. Beside those things i will for sure know that i will be using alot of search engine to search for topic, sources, or another form of search to search for things that i needed. As of right now i don't think that there are anything that i can dislike about this course.
