Welcome to Research: Help

This page is the result of the work of the Library Reference Interns during the 2004/2005 school year, under the guidance of Jules Unsel and the other Reference Librarians at the Daniel J. Evans Library at The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington.
Our goal was to create a tool that could be used as a guide to approaching and carrying out a research project, as well as a guide to using our Library and its services.
