Guide Purpose

The aim of this guide is threefold:

To outline the traditional research pathway beginning with dictionaries, encyclopedias, yearbooks, handbooks, etc.
To develop a familiarity and vocabulary of definitions, concepts and reference sources.
To serve as a resource for reference desk staff in leading users to appropriate library services, resources, and collections.

A final note, library guides provide a passive approach to reference services for undergraduate research inquiries. Consult the reference desk staff as appropriate.
