Evidence-based Practice: Some Tools to Find It

Books + etc.

Books and government documents can be found using our Libraries' catalog and/or through OneSearch. Literature reviews and systematic reviews may be book-length, and not uncommonly are published as government documents, as well as in the form of journal articles.

Search by keyword, author, or title for books or government documents-- look for location, call number and status or links to online content to find the item.
