If you are trying to find information on a specific topic, it is usually best to start by searching a library database such as CINAHL Complete or by searching across the Library's holdings using Google Scholar.

Type your keywords into the remaining boxes and complete your search. In the case of journals that are available in print format in the library but not available online, please be sure to record the volume, issue, and page numbers of the article you need.
