Unlocking Library Resources: Introducing our New Reference Guide: Encyclopedias & Dictionaries
Reference sources are essential tools for academic study because they provide quick access to reliable information on a wide range of topics.
Here's why they're so handy:
1. Give an overview of a topic
2. Identify essential readings in the field
3. Clarify terms or concepts you aren't familiar with
4. Hints for keywords for further searches in the Library databases
Examples:
• Basic & Clinical Pharmacology
• Black's Medical Dictionary
• Concise Handbook of Management
• Encyclopedia of Nursing Research
• Alternative Health in American History: An Encyclopedia from Acupuncture to Yoga
