Research Strategy

This guide is organized to help you in the research process, which usually proceeds from general sources to more specific ones.

STEP 1:  Begin with general sources, both print and online, for background information

STEP 2:  Find books from the collection (highlighted on the tabbed pages above, and kept on the labeled cart)

STEP 3:  Look for deeper dives and primary sources; mostly found in the library databases highlighted on each tabbed page

STEP 4:  When in doubt, ask the librarians for help!

And, of course, remember to cite all of your sources early with NoodleTools (explanatory videos below)
