  1. NOTE to instructors about this PPT • NOTE about missing images: • For our version of this PPT at Spokane Community College library, we inserted images throughout of periodical covers and other information sources which we own in our collection. These images have been removed from this shared PPT with the expectation that you will add your own images when you customize this tool. Any images which remain are either from a commercial clip art collection which our college graphics department owns, or are from Britannica Image Quest, our proprietary database of rights-cleared images which are freely reproducible by our college for educational purposes. We have left in screen shots of two of our periodical databases: an image from ProQuest and one from Associates Programs Source Plus. • Please contact the SCC Library with any questions you may have or to see a sample of our working version . • Janine Odlevak, SCC Instructional Services Librarian, June 2012, 509-533-8821
