But all of us, no matter what we write, work with facts and history at least some of the time. Don't fret: there are a slew of ways (old and new) to find out what you need to know, and some tried and true methods to approach how to work with what you find. Together we'll discuss how to track down info of all kinds, how to enter into the past, and how to know when research is your friend, and when it's your foe.
