Week 3 Weekly Blog Questions - Research Questions

West Point Bridge Designer is newly introduced us, which means that we need to do a little bit of research on how to use this software and how to utilize this software to make the best design possible. We are given the chance to ask our research librarian, Mr. Jay Bhatt, any questions regarding our project. Below are three questions that I would want to ask Mr. Bhatt in class tomorrow:
1) Are the articles organized according to specific topic/field of study or are they organized in categories of related-topics?
2) How will we know whether the articles are scholarly articles or regular articles that would show up on Google search? In another word, is there an option of choosing to only get results of scholarly articles?
3) Since most of us are not so familiar with the bridge design software, is there any information in the Engineering Village that would guide us through on how to make a successful bridge?
