SummerStart: Quick Introduction to Library Research

Library guide for students participating in SummerStart

Using this Learning Module

Syracuse University Libraries are much larger than the public or school libraries you may have used. We hope that this will help introduce you to some of the most important research resources, strategies, tools, and attitudes that will help you with your research as a college student.   

Most of the components of the introduction will be videos or interactive tutorials, some of which might require you to log in with your NetID and password. If you have any questions about accessing these videos and tutorials, please contact SU Libraries using the "Need Help? Ask Us!" box on the right side of this guide.
