Finding Information: Books and Articles

LibGuides

LibGuides is a web publishing platform, that helps library staff share information, create and manage websites and organize edited collections of resources. While there are several different types of LibGuides the 2 most used ones are Research Guides and Topical Guides.

Research Guides usually correspond to an academic discipline (e.g., History, Anthropology, Sociology etc.); however, there are exceptions. For example, the Government Information Research Guide does not match up with an academic discipline but the information in it can generally be used across most Social Science subject areas. Topical Guides can cover a variety of topics such as but not limited to: Earth Day, Human Trafficking and Brexit

Jessy looked at the various Research Guide Subjects and was happy to know she had so many options. She decided she would start with the Climate Change Topical Guide and if that did not work for her, she would then use the International or Global Studies Research Guides. She was also interested in exploring Government Information.










Jessy was not on campus and did not know if she could access any of the electronic subscription resources, so she viewed the Accessing Library Resources Remotely tutorial before she moved on.
