Title: William T. Young Library
Author: UK Student
Where: The writing Center

This article talks about how lucky the students of the University of Kentucky are to have such a fantastic library to use whenever they need it. The library is open till 1 in the morning for students and if you are there studying late then you can just get a ride in a golf cart or have a member of the ROTC walk you back to your dorm so you feel safe on campus. The library has multiple floors, each one serving a different purpose. You can go to different floors depending on how quiet and what resources you need. The basement offers computer help and cubbies for you to work with a partner if you need to and do group work. This relates to my project because it has to do with a student facility that benefits students and their ability to learn and exceed at the University. I wonder how many kids use the library everyday? If it is more than the student center or the Johnson center? The library also has a starbucks for the late nights you spend at the library cramming for finals. I think the library is an excellent addition to the University and many kids are thankful to have it.

  1. Devin, you do a nice job summarizing your sources, and you are starting to ask some good questions that could lead to further research. Remember that your documentary topic will be a specific space or organization on campus, not student facilities that benefit students in general. Any of the specific spaces you talk about in your posts could be your topics, but you will have to narrow down to something. In future posts, you also need to reflect on how the source you use could be used in your documentary. Would you use this source to give background information at the beginning of a documentary? Or is this just a springboard for further research?
