Interlibrary Loan

If you identify a scholarly article in Google Scholar that you want full-text access to but it is not in the South College databases and it is not available Open Access on the internet, you can request access to it through interlibrary loan. Complete an interlibrary loan request form. Provide all required information. It takes usually between 1-4 days to receive an article through interlibrary loan.

Data Sets Guide

A data set (also shown as dataset) is essentially a collection of related data that is organized for analysis or some other purpose. The data is typically organized in a specific way, often in rows and columns or another format that makes it easy to access and use. Data sets can come in various formats, including spreadsheets, databases, or even collections of text files or images. Data sets are used for a variety of purposes, including research, statistical analysis, training machine learning models, and data visualization.

Librarian Tip

Instead of crafting a research question first and then searching for a data set that matches it, explore data sets that are available to you and let them inspire your research question.
