Student and librarian looking at a reference book

Sometimes you need a particular, difficult-to-find piece of information. Remember that flipping through a text “blindly” is not the best way to find a statistic or fact.

Many print and electronic resources have a table of contents, index, or site map that can help you find a detail quickly. A librarian can show you the best way to approach your research resources.

Research isn't easy, but there are many people available to assist you. Don't be afraid to ask for help!
