This guide is designed to help you navigate the library and complete your research by breaking the research process down step-by-step.
There will be a total of six library sessions:
Day 1: Exploring the Library
Day 2: Books
Day 3: Articles I
Day 4: Articles II
Day 5: Newspapers and Microfilm
Day 6: Primary Sources and Government Documents
During each session, you will learn a new way to find information about your topic and have time during the session to search for materials of your own. Visit the page of the corresponding day to see what is in store for you during our library session, how the session will be organized, and how it will help you complete your research.
If you have any questions during the sessions, please let me know and I will be happy to answer them! You can also schedule a research appointment with me (just choose my name from the drop-down list) or a reference librarian should you need anything after the session. Contact info can be found on this page!
