Hello, welcome to the Social Work Topics Guide.
The guide provides information on a variety of topics; the guide does not provide all the information available on a topic. Use the guide to help you start your research. The Home page provides basic information and tips; the additional pages provide information on topics of interest.
Use the tabs at the top of each page to help you locate information.
One of my primary duties as the Social Work Librarian is to assist you in developing research and evaluation skills to be a successful social worker. Contact me with questions; we can meet via email, in person, or by Zoom.

You can use the Find e-journals, eBooks, and media by title or ISSN/ISBN by using the Find e-journal, eBooks, and other media link. Use the title of the journal, not the title of the article for your search.
Remember to use Interlibrary Loan (ILL) to access journal articles our library does not subscribe to.
Reading a scholarly article is different than reading a popular article in magazines like People or National Geographic. Scholarly articles contain detailed research findings, discipline-specific language, and can be several pages in length. For tips on how to read scholarly articles, click on the links below.
