#8--ArchiveGrid and Camio

#1 ArchiveGrid -- Started this lesson off we had to type in "Sitting Bull autograph card" it gave us one result. Click into that it gave us notes and summaries; of Sitting Bull's life. I learned his date of birth with a question mark after the date and the date in which he died. Sitting Bull was also know by three other names. He was a Native American shaman and leader of the Hunkpapa Sioux. He was wounded in battle many occasions. He did not like the White man coming into his territory. Sitting Bull led the Sioux and Cheyenne warriors against U.S. Soldiers of the 7th Cavalry at the battle of Little Bighorn. Many were killed. Sitting Bull led his tribe into Canada where they lived until surrendering to U.S. Forces. After his capture he toured with Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show. Sitting Bull was killed while resisting arrest for his unwillingness to abandon the traditions of the ritual Ghost Dance, which had been outlawed. You can say he lived his life his way and also stood up for what he believed in.
#2 For my own search I looked up Elvis Presley it had 84 results. In the Hugo Keesing Collection on Elvis Presley as you clicked into it you would see a table of contents. Starting with abstract, important information for Users of the collection, Historical note, Scope and Contents of the Collection, Custodial History and Acquisition information, Processing information, Arrangement of Collection. It just went on and on. I also checked into Brigham Young University -- Preliminary Register of the Ken Darby papers, 1929-1992 this told you how Ken Darby new Elvis Presley, and that he composed "Love Me Tender" and acted as vocal coach to Elvis Presley. There were online searchers you could look at for more information. I also notice under the title search you can see "read more" a page would come up give you Notes and Summaries, This collection covers and Contact and archivist to learn more about access to materials in this collection. Inside the box {Brigham Young University}. You could click into it, but you have to belong to the University to go into the site.
#3 CAMIO -- A--Look up "Paul Revere" It showed you the items made by him. I looked at a teaspoon, tea urn, I really like the Goblet - date 1782, picture of the Boston Massacre 1770. I also liked the Coffee Urn. I liked when you clicked on the view a high-resolution full image. I was able to see some of the details in the picture.
B--In the Sioux search I found bead work, paintings on oil canvas, paintings in pencils and color pencils. Pipe bowl and pipe stem was pretty. I saw blanket, saddle bag, war club, beaded dress and boll and baby bonnet, etc.                                                                                                                                              C--As for my favorite artist I do not have one. If someone came into the library and had a artist name I would take them to our research computer and show them how to look them up.
D--I picked "Fitz Hugh Lane for this exercise and it showed 14 works. It was cool to be able to put them in a slide show. At lease you could see the picture well and in the view high-resolution was great. To be able to save this on a webpage as you work on your project would be able to save time and what a great slide show you would have in your presentation. Now when a question pops into my head about history or art I will know where to look for it, in ArchiveGrid and Camio.
