Meeting Four (NLB Trip)

Today we went down to the National Library Board to gather information for our Literature Review.

As I didn't know what does a literature review consist of and it's my first time doing one, I asked my teammates how to go about doing it. I found out that it's actually researching on the certain area or topic and gather as many findings as possible and summarize them into a review.

Chronos directed us to the National Library because he told us that we could make use the magazines they have over there like Times Weekly or newspaper cuttings and then learn about the recent happenings of the green efforts in events industry.

So with that in mind, we headed to the library and see if we could find anything over there. At first, we tried to find related books at the Sociology and Science section but couldn't find any. Beside it was the magazine section so we decided to try our luck. We didn't know that the library actually keeps the whole periodical publication of Times Magazine. We then took the whole stack of magazines and distributed among us to search for any article that talks about greening of events.

After an hour or so, we managed to get 10 over articles with relation to our fyp topic. However, I feel that the articles that mentioned about making events more environmentally friendly are too general for us to make reference from them. Nontheless, we managed to get some solid findings that we can show Chronos in the next meeting.
