Libraries Research Collections
- This site is a guide primarily to information sources available
at Indiana University, but would be useful to anyone looking for information
in this subject area. It includes guides to searching strategies for
books, periodicals, and newspapers, statistics, and Internet sources.
Research guides were adapted from class handouts that Robert Goehlert
developed and include lists of reference sources, indexes, and journals,
including a guide to the use of LEXIS/NEXIS. An interesting addition
is a collection development policy and a summary of the sources of
materials for the collection.
