Library Research Help

Library course and subject research guides are online guides built by MC librarians to help your students find and use library resources for a specific class or on a specific academic subject. Clicking the Library Research Help link in your Blackboard course will take you and your students to the most relevant research guide the library has for your class.

Use these guides to help your students become independent researchers and prepare for assignments, including developing a topic, finding sources, evaluating sources, and citing sources.
