The research process is a creative one requiring flexibility and ability to change approaches in midstream. Some approaches may work, some may hit a dead end. If the latter happens, don't be discouraged. Try another search term, another database, etc. But if you're stuck and you need help, the following resources are available:
Database help--most of the databases have "Help" links and some have easy to follow tutorials.
Library policies, procedures, and services-- Getting started @ the Library and other User Guides plus the Library's web Site Search and Index
Finally, please don't hesitate to ask for help from either the Info and Research Help Desk (contact information in the left hand column) or from me (contact information in the right hand column).
