Geography 100: Online Library Workshop

The purpose of this online library workshop is to help you accomplish effective library research for the course project for Geography 100.

The goal of the course project is for you to explore the processes of globalization in more depth by engaging in a detailed examination of an organization that operates globally. 'Globally' in this sense means an organization whose scope of operations is larger than just the local or national scales.

Before doing this online library workshop, select the organization that you will be analyzing.
