Research while in Blackboard
October 27, 2008
You may have already noticed there is now a library tab in Blackboard!
From the library tab you can: search for books and scholarly articles by subject, request a research appointment with a librarian, and get 24/7 chat help from a librarian. Stay tuned for more subject specific Blackboard library modules!
RefWorks is also available through Blackboard. If you have never used RefWorks before, it is a very nifty (but does have a bit of a learning curve) reference tool. You can export citations from databases, the library catalog, LINK+, and there is even a download that will create citations from webpages! RefWorks is available through the internet so you can access your citations from any computer with internet access. You can also quickly create bibliographies in your favorite citation format (APA, MLA, ASA, AAA, etc.). View how to export citations from ProQuest into RefWorks.
