CFCS 1110/1112 Assignment Guide  

Books are good starting points for research.  They may be available in print or online, and can help you refine your topic and select words and phrases (search terms) to use in your searches.

Use the Library Catalogue to find books on your topic.  Start with a KEYWORD search using words and phrases that describe your topic.  When you find a book that addresses your topic well, make note of the SUBJECTS assigned to it. They will be useful in finding more information on the same topic. 

Here are a few sample subjects to get you started.  Click on any of these subjects to perform a search for books, DVDs and other materials in the Douglas College Library:

Youth with social disabilities                  Problem youth

Learning disabilities                                  Older People -- Care   

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome                          Street youth   

Family Counseling                                     Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

There's a new way to find books, DVDs & more in the Library.
