Distinguishing Trade Publications Video, Rhonda J Mcginnis
Midwest Business Librarian Summit (MBLS)
This Lightning Talk would discuss the frustration I've felt with traditional materials designed to teach students the difference between Scholarly and Popular Journals. Even when materials address trade publications, they rarely if ever promote them positively.

My talk would discuss the perceived need, the creation process, and it reception/use since creation. I would provide a link to the video if there was …

With the majority of the business books on our shelves out-of-date and not circulating, this project provided an opportunity to make the business collection more relevant …
