This guide provides information about a number of useful resources on topics related to developmental or educational psychology.  Use the tabs above to explore these resources.

• Getting started -- where you are now; includes brief information about St. Thomas libraries and other guides of interest
• Finding Books -- search for print or electronic books, media, and other things that would be in a library--or in some cases--online
• Reference Resources--take a look at these encyclopedias and research handbooks.  They are often good for a summary of research on a topic. Some, but not all, are online.
• Finding Articles--a good place to start if you are looking for journal articles
• Websites for Research -- try these websites for information that will supplement your library research
• Citing Sources -- help for completing the bibliography for your paper/project

Most of the recent printed sources on developmental or educational psychology will probably be located at Keffer Library.  You may occasionally find a book or journal that is housed at O-Shaughnessey-Frey Library (or possibly in another CLICnet library).  You may request items at other libraries through interlibrary loan.  If you are in an off-campus cohort (and outside the metro area), you may request any circulating books from any library (including Keffer) on interlibrary loan and they will be mailed to you

Visit these pages for more information on Interlibrary Loan.  Also check out the video tutorial (and other links) on the left side of these pages.
