Child Development

This Child Development Guide identifies articles, government documents, agency websites, and other select resources to support your program.

Databases are collections of articles, ebooks, streaming videos, and other sources of data. They are often subscription-based, but students and faculty get access for free by signing in, when prompted, with their Seneca usernames and passwords. Some of the content in these databases is available exclusively within the database, while some of the content is also available when you use Library Search.
