Making sense of the information explosion

Research Guides

  • Each Research & Instruction librarian makes Research Guides (a.k.a. "LibGuides" or "Libguides") in their subject fields. 
  • These guides vary by librarian, but will generally show:
    • links to the databases in a particular field
    • links to libguides in a field
    • links to style guides in a field
  • Some guides provide tutorials on searching for specific types of information.
  • Browsing libguides in your major field will help you gain a feel for where you would begin library research when you take classes in your major.
