- The tutorials below are designed as an introduction to selected library databases, searching techniques, and other library resources useful to students in the College of Education.
- If you have any questions related to conducting your research, please feel free to contact: Mara Houdyshell, Education and Child & Adolescent Development Librarian at: mara.houdyshell@csun.edu or at (818) 677-3840 telephone/voicemail.
- Note: When accessing one of CSUN’s subscription databases, always begin at the Oviatt Library’s homepage, then select either Databases by Subject or Databases A-Z. Do not type in the url of a database in an attempt to go directly to it via the Internet, you will not be recognized as a CSUN student and you will be requested to pay for access. You don’t want that to happen to you.
