3 Goals

A

Document Delivery

B

Study Spaces

Library Services

If the libraries are lacking an article or a book, you can order items using this service.  Delivery time: +/- 2 to 3 days for an article and 1 to 2 weeks for a book.

You can book private/group study rooms here for multiple library locations. If you are a PhD student, you can apply for a private study space at the Elizabeth Dafoe Library here.

C

Subject Guides

Subject guides can provide you with a good starting point for research (e.g., relevant databases, handbooks, and encyclopedias).  PACS guide is here.

A

Library Access (browser extension)

B

Reference Manager (Zotero)

Research Tools

Library Access is tool is a shortcut for accessing articles without going through the library catalogue (e.g., if you are using GoogleScholar or a regular search engine)

This software allows you to keep track of, organize, and annotate articles you find. It is also possible to use it to "automatically" generate reference lists. There are a number of applications available (click here for more info). I recommend Zotero, which is open source/free and relatively easy to use.  You can test out the auto citation generator here.
