Let's do a practice search! This simple search can help you look for general information about a topic. If you need more help, you can try an advanced search or ask the library for assistance.
1. Begin by going to the library homepage. Search for your topic using the library's search (if it's a big topic, try searching for the largest, most general ideas for the best results)
2. By searching 'Climate Change,' we have over 5 million results! Let's use some filters to refine our results a little more.
3. Look for the 'Refine your results' tab on the left-hand side of your screen. Narrow our search by selecting 'Peer-Reviewed' or 'Available Online' or looking for only books. Think of this like the same online shopping filters for the library!
4. Once you've found the one you want, you can view it online or check it out from the library. Happy searching!
