Welcome!

Hello and Welcome!

  • Use this LibGuide as a refresher page for your research! If you have any questions use my information or the Ask a Librarian feature located on the right!
  • In the center column, you'll find information regarding starting points, the databases, and boolean operators that were covered in our session.
  • On the left, you'll find a quick search function to the catalog, some formatting help, the interlibrary loan request form as well as the CRAAPP TESTS that were mentioned in our presentation!
  • Lastly, use the tab above marked "Tutorials" to get a refresher on some of the databases that we discussed today!

For mobile views, read the header for each box. The layout gets condensed into one column!

Brainstorming and Mind Mapping

Before you being diving into the databases, take some time to do some brainstorming or mind mapping! It's helpful to get some keywords flowing! Try and avoid long stings or full sentences here as well; you'll thank yourself later!
