Welcome and Contact Information

What is this library session all about?

This library session is about getting you prepared for college-level research. We'll do that by focusing on researching information you'll need to start your own business, and briefly covering tools, resources and skills that will help you with every research project at UT.

Specifically, you will learn:

1. how to research companies and industries, and how to find market data and demographics to help you as you plan your own business.

2. what tools are available for organizing and citing sources

3. how to get research, writing and public speaking help. 

4. how to find guides that will help you locate and evaluate sources

How Can a Librarian Help?

Librarians are available to help with every step of the research process. We are information professionals and love working with students to connect you with the information you need. We can help you:

  • choose a research topic or find a research question
  • broaden or narrow your topic
  • find sources, whether they are books, articles, maps, music, data, etc. We can help you do great searches using Libraries tools and search engines like Google. 
  • evaluate sources. Is it credible? Is it peer-reviewed? etc.
  • recommend tools for organizing your research and citations..
