Well, I don' know about anyone else in this class, but I am so thankful for the practice with citing a resource. I know that I am not very good at this and I definitely needed the help. Hopefully my "Works Cited" page won't be a major downside to my paper. I hope to continue to gain resources as the semester goes on.
Speaking of that, I went to the library sometime this past week (I can't recall which day it was.) and picked up a bunch of books that will hopefully be helpful to my need for more resources as well as for my research. I think I must have spent at least an hour and a half browsing through their history section, then their cultural section and finally their musical section. There were a few songbooks but none of which were bluegrass. By the time I had finished pulling books off the shelves and putting some back, I had only eight books. I say only eight, but believe me, that was plenty. When I picked up the books, I had to hold them with my arms fully extended, not just because of the weight but also because of how tall the stack was. (They weren't the thinest books around, let me tell you.) I am so glad that I decided to drive to the library rather than walk from our house. It's less than a mile away but the way back is all uphill and I didn't exactly feel like carrying all those books back home.
