Fogler Library's catalog, URSUS provides you with information about books, government documents, and journals (but NOT articles).
Reference Sources

Ways to Identify Articles
After you use these Indexes, do a JOURNAL search in URSUS, using the name of the journal (not the title of the article) to see if we have access to it in either paper or electronic format.
Interlibrary Loan - for journal articles we do not have access to
How to Evaluate Internet Resources
It's important to treat Internet resources as you would any other information resource. Critical evaluation of the site is absolutely necessary. A good guide for this is Thinking Critically about World Wide Web Resources, by Esther Grassian, UCLA College Library.
Citing Sources
It is very important to cite words and/or ideas you take straight from another work and put into your paper. Your instructor will let you know what specific format to use. We have print guides at the Reference Desk, or you can use Quick Reference: Citation Guides.
