The University of Southern Mississippi Libraries are pleased to announce a new format for publishing research guides created by Southern Miss librarians. The new research guides utilize a software called LibGuides and are available at http://libguides.lib.usm.edu/index.php.

Research guides have already been created for most degree programs and additional guides are under development. The new guides provide links to high quality research resources, as well as tips for more effective searching. The guides are designed to offer assistance to both novice and experienced researchers, helping to quickly and effectively connect researchers with the information they seek.

Students, faculty, and staff are encouraged to visit the research guide home page for each college using the links below:

Research Guides for Arts & Letters
Research Guides for Business
Research Guides for Education & Psychology
Research Guides for Health
Research Guides for Nursing
Research Guides for Science & Technology
