Welcome to the research guide for SAS/SOC 232. Use this guide as a starting point for your research. If you would like to chat about finding or citing sources for your research in this class or any other, feel free to make an appointment with me here:
Try starting with an encyclopedia, bibliography, or background source to get ideas on topics, search terms, and other sources.
Annotated bibliographies for a variety of subject areas.
Hundreds of full-text academic encyclopedias, dictionaries, and other sources for introductions to topics, definitions, or factual information. Includes subject-specific titles from art, literature, education, science, religion, history and more.
Over 400 full-text academic encyclopedias, language dictionaries, books of quotations, and other sources. Includes subject-specific titles from art, classics, history, law, linguistics, literature, media studies, medicine, performing arts, philosophy, religion, science and technology, politics, and more.
Do you need a resource that Wellesley does not have or that is currently checked out? Have you hit a "pay wall" while looking for the full text of an article or book chapter ? Place an ILL request and we'll try to get it for you!
Interlibrary loan (ILL) is the sharing of library materials worldwide. We find and borrow the resources you need that Wellesley does not have and lend our materials as well. Loan requests (books, dvd/cds, scores) will be sent to our library for you to pick up and articles and book chapters are sent to your ILL account as pdfs.
