SSWN 637 - Social Work Research

This guide will provide an overview to essential skills for success in your course, including using RefWorks, selecting peer-reviewed articles, crafting a literature review, crediting sources and referencing in APA style.

How can I access resources from off-campus?

When using a computer on-campus, you'll be automatically able to access the Libraries' resources.

To access the Libraries' resources from off-campus, you have two options:

  • You can log into TouroOne (https://touroone.touro.edu/) and select the blue Libraries button.
  • You can search and find a resource on the Libraries site (https://www.tourolib.org/). Once you click on the resource, you will be prompted to log in with your Touro One credentials.

Databases

Databases are a great place to search for individual articles from academic journals, magazines, and newspapers.

While many news and magazine articles may also be found with an internet search engine, our subscription databases can provide you with access to older articles that are not available online and other pay-per-view materials, plus additional options to refine your search. As far as scholarly articles go, databases should be your first stop! Most scholarly literature is not freely available outside of a university.

Easily discover the world of library content

You can use the quicksearch function on the library homepage, which is also in the search box above, for more general research or use the subject specific databases in the following tabs for more focused research.
