1. I did a basic search on German Shepherd dogs. There were tons of articles many dealing with physical or health related problems of this particular bred, from complex segregation analysis of hip dysplasia to the type of coat that a German shepherd should have. There were articles on herding since a "shepherd" is a herding dog. I was surprised by the amount of information.
1a. I read a blog about maritime shipping. It appeared the blogger enjoyed that subject - he said he used a voice activated blog. I assume that means he just talks and what he says is written or blogged. I'd not heard of that until now.
2. Publications:
I chose library as my keyword. First I tried "in title" which did not produce much then I used "in subject" and up popped 96 publications. On the right side of the screen were a list of source types, such as scholarly journals, trade journals, magazines, books and other. The "other" happened to be a BLOG which I looked at briefly. It was the "Distant Librarian". This blog brought up Library and Information Sciences which was more information than I wanted.
Not much for observations on this challenge - I'm starting to feel crunch time since lesson 6 came out Sunday and it's already Tuesday.
Great review of Proquest--you found some interesting information! You are doing fine--there is an extra week at the end of the Challenge so you will have time to catch up. As long as all lessons are done by March 31 you are good!
