3. Upon hitting "search", you will see a list of results. The picture and underlying text to the left of each result shows what kind of resource it is. Click on the title of an item in order to either access the item (if it is online) or find the location of the item in the Libraries.
For more search tips, or for any other help with your research, contact the librarians.
