Basically, Research Guides are designed to help you navigate your library's resources. Over the years, these useful Guides have been called Library Guides, LibGuides, Subject Guides or by some other moniker, but they all do the same thing: help you with your teaching and research.
Research Guides are compiled by ISU Library faculty members. We all have advanced degrees in library/information science or related disciplines. In addition, many of us have advanced degrees in other disciplines.
There are various types of Research Guides:
We have a few books on research guides, too: in print and electronic format.
If you would like more information on a particular research guide, please contact the guide's owner, usually listed on the guide. If you'd like us to create a guide, contract one of our research/instruction librarians.
