Research guides will help you select, evaluate, and cite your sources of information.  While researching a topic, you may need to use a variety of information resources in different formats.  Information could be in the form of audio/sound files, books, digital images, dissertations, DVDs/videos, journal or newspaper articles, Web resources, or other types of materials.  

Many of the Library's Web-based subscriptions such as Databases are available to all Johnson & Wales campuses.  If access is restricted to a specific JWU campus, it is indicated after the name of the database.
