Library Tutorial Module 2: Searching

Module 2: Using Library Resources

The place to start your search is the Library's website.

  • You'll find thousands of online and print resources that have been selected by the Menlo librarians to support your courses and assignments.

  • You won't find most of our resources on Google or the web because our subscriptions are available only to the Menlo community.

  • Check our catalog for books, e-books, and articles.

  • Search our databases for even more articles, and even the odd book or two.

  • When you need to know if the Library has access to a particular magazine, journal, or newspaper, you can use the Find journal by title link to search for it.

    • The result screen will tell you if the publication is available on our shelves or in our databases.
