Have you ever heard of a LibGuide?
LibGuide/Research guide is a term librarians use frequently
when describing their resources. Honestly, it’s a bit of jargon term. Essentially,
what we are talking about is a mini-website filled with information resources
around a particular topic so you can easily navigate to them when you need
them.
Here at Lenoir-Rhyne, all of our Research Guides tend to
follow a familiar format. I recently put together an 8 minute video going over "the what
and the why" of Research Guides so you can feel comfortable in using them for
your research.
This video also covers some important library basics as
well. Students who haven’t used a library website in a while may find this particularly
helpful refresher information. It discusses what a database is and when to use
one as well the nature of academic journals and general library research.
This is a great breakdown of LibGuides! It clears up the jargon and explains the concept in a user-friendly way. The 8-minute video sounds like a fantastic resource, especially for students who might be unfamiliar with library research. I particularly like that it covers library basics like databases and academic journals - that's really helpful for anyone getting started. Thanks for sharing
