Required course readings can be found in Course Guides in the Library. Use the Course Guides page to find guides for your courses.

To be successful in your academic research, you may need to go beyond the collections in the Walden Library. No library can contain everything, and many useful resources are already available for free on the Internet. Your Research Network should extend further through these resources. Below you'll find information about Google Scholar, Google Books, Local Public or Academic Libraries, and related Professional Organizations [via Career Planning and Development].
Some Google Scholar searches may provide an overwhelming number of results causing you to miss important research. You may also spend a lot of time verifying if an article is peer reviewed, but it is still a great tool for comprehensive searching!
