This page provides a series of “How To” Reference and Instruction Guides created by librarians at the Leatherby Libraries. Print versions of the guides are available next to the 1st Floor Reference Desk.

These guides offer concise and basic information on timely topics. If you are in need of research assistance for your major, we also recommend you use the more in-depth Research and Subject Guides. For assistance from a librarian, please visit Ask a Librarian / Reference.
