To start your research, it's important to consider what kind of resource you are looking for. Are you in need of background knowledge that would be available in a book or encyclopedia? What about academic commentary on an issue from a journal article? Maybe a news article would be the best source for recent information on your topic. The library provides access to these resources and more, through the library catalogue and databases. Explore these resources by reviewing the Articles and Databases, Books, and Videos tabs, and get help for your research by checking out the tutorials below.
