If you've chosen a peace issue as your assignment, here are my recommendations on how to use this guide to research that topic.
| Find Background Information: Start here. Select one or more of the social issues databases (Gale eBooks, CQ Researcher). |
| Find and Use Books: Next, explore eBooks related to your topic. Books are great for synthesizing a lot of research in one place. |
| Find Scholarly Articles: Finally, now you know more about your issue, dive deep into discussion, analysis, and research relating to it. |
| Locate Primary Sources: Learn about primary sources and explore some tools recommended by the library to find them. |
