Database Scavenger Hunt #3 - We're Celebrating Spanish Heritage Month

Submitted by sadie.bruce on Mon, 10/01/2018 - 14:01

This month we're celebraring Spanish Heritage Month! Use library eservices or databases to answer four questions. You'll have until the end of the month to complete the questions and either email or interoffice mail the answers to Collection Development, ATTN: Sadie.

Every hunt turned in on time wins some swag! The only rule is you have to use our resources to answer the questions (no googling). You absolutely can team up with coworkers. There's more than one way to get to an answer. I'll post a key at the start of next month with the databases I used to build the hunt.

The scavenger hunt is attached. Please let me know if you have trouble opening the file. Also attached is the key for the September hunt and bonus history hunt. The most popular databases used to answer September's questions were:

Question 1 - Kanopy [1]

Question 2 - Film Scripts Online [2]

Question 3 - Biography Reference Center [3]

Question 4 - Explora [4]
