Butler Resources/Online Databases

Butler Resources and Online databases are a series of structured tools that can gretly help any student succeed while attending this instituion. This series of networks contains many different facets ranging from an extensive online library to an opposing viewpoints research database. Ultimately anything that a student can fathom doing on this intertwining network of higher education he/she can achieve with the right amount of no how. Butler has managed to keep this series of networks extremely easy to navigate through. If you start out trying to find a certain book in the elibrary it is not hard to then switch over an get to reading the opposing viewpoints databases. In the elibrary things are run much like a regular library. the only downsiide in my opinion is the overwhelming reality meaning that if a a book is checked out you cannot look at it until it is returned just like a real library. I think that is really cool yet on the other side it would be kind of effecient if you could view books at the same time some one else is viewing it. on the other hand Butler's elibrary is extensive and it has many books. The Opposing iewpoints databases is another really cool feature that the butler website has to offer. Say you are doing a research paper an you have to look at different sides of the argument the opposing viewpoints database is a perfect place to do so. YOu just figure out which argument you want to research and get all the information you could ever possibly need to complete your research!
