You've Got a New Research Project. How Can the Library Help?
You've Got a New Research Project. How Can the Library Help?
You've been assigned a research project, and the assignment sheet tells you to use the library. But what does that mean? Who can help you at the library? How many books can you check out? What support does the library offer for data management? How can you get something the library doesn’t own? Learn the answers to these questions and more in this virtual session. By the end of this session, you’ll be able to
-
Locate research help at the University Libraries
-
Navigate the library’s website
-
Identify library resources that can help you succeed in graduate-level research
Please note that in this session, we won’t be covering how to use databases or search for information; if you’re interested in learning more about those topics, please sign up for one of the literature review sessions in this workshop series.
