Welcome to the Research Guide for GEOG/GEOL 4120: Introduction to Research. This guide has been specifically created to help you be successful in navigating resources for your Intro to Research Class! Use the tabs to go specifically to the help you need. This guide will be available the duration of the semester, and is accessible from a computer or mobile device.
Take the Time
- To create an Illiad account if you don't already have one! Interlibrary loan will probably be a reality at some point in your research future. Save time now, and create your account. This will alleviate a great deal of frustration and confusion once you are researching and find something that the library does not subscribe to.
- Remember, even if you are on campus, your personal laptop will have an IP address that is not recognized. You will need to authenticate (your GS credentials) to fully access materials. Sometimes the initial login does not complete this. If you are searching the databases and see a yellow bar at the top of the page - you need to click and authenticate!
- Ask-A-Librarian Chat is there for a reason! There is no need to second guess and deal with major frustration while searching library resources. The library chat function is on the library home page, and is also available through our library guides (little golden bubble on each page). Use it and receive an immediate answer to your question!
