GETTING STARTED

GETTING STARTED: Research Strategies, 3rd ed., (2008) by William Badke. This book is a great resource for study about the research process. An online abridged version is available, but much briefer than the print version. The print edition can be checked out.

The starting place for your library research is with the "research question." A well articulated, focused question is essential for an effective search of article databases and library catalogs.

If you need assistance in formulating your question or other type of assistance, please ask at the reference desk.
