VIDEO TUTORIALS FOR LIBRARY RESEARCH



         Now available for your course or your own edification, the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education (PASSHE) has commissioned a number of video tutorials for student AND faculty to learn about library research as well as specialized tools such as SciFinder, Project Muse and Google books. You will also see topics such as "What is a Research Study" and "From a newspaper article to a research study." Follow the link

to review and/or select a tutorial to watch. At present, the tutorials require Microsoft Silverlight be installed on your computer; it is a free download if you do not have it. We hope to have them migrated to YouTube shortly.
     By next spring we will be adding tutorials in Business and Nursing topics.
     For any questions regarding their use, please contact Jack Widner @ 814-732-2175. You can download Silverlight by clicking here.
