Research guides are online resources created by librarians. Some research guides are topic specific in order to help users identify the most useful sources in a given area or class. The library has research guides for each major as well as general guides, like this one, to help you get started. If you're feeling overwhelmed with the number of resources available to you, research guides are a great place to start because librarians have already figured out some of the most useful places to look.
Library Services, housed in the Learning Commons, is a valuable resource during your time on campus. Librarians can help you with a variety of tasks including narrowing your research topic and defining a question, advanced searching and keyword development, information literacy, and much more! Each department has its own library liaison, who works with that department's faculty and students to help with research and resources.
