Resources for Library Research

 

The PAU Library maintains a website that includes multiple pages designed to help you use a wide range of resources for discovering and accessing research materials, either directly or through ILL. Whether you're looking for journal articles, eBooks, psychological tests, data sets, or links to other library guides like this one, the library is ready to assist!

 

Our Library Resources page provides general overviews of our library resources as well as navigation panel links to targeted subpages to assist you with each individual resource. The subpages are designed to orient you to the resource and provide guidance for using it effectively to help you find the research materials you need to reach your academic goals and objectives. This information will help you determine if an ILL request is necessary and appropriate. But don't forget, the PAU librarians are only an email away if you'd like additional guidance!

 

For quick, immediate access to each targeted resource subpage, you can go to the home page of the PAU Library website and scroll down to the "Explore our Resources" section. You'll find the links displayed in a grid format, as illustrated below. Just click on a link to get where you need to go!
