Research and Course Guides

The Masland Library has created a number of research and course guides. 
A complete list of guides can be found on the Masland Library website or here


Types of Guides:

  • Research Guide - designed to give an overview of the resources available through the library and to help students get started with research projects.
  • Course Guide - can include resources related to the course, links to course readings, etc. Course guides are a great way to put all the resources in one easy-to-navigate place for all students.
