Video or interactive tutorials about using library resources and services.

The Waggoner Library Tutorials Research Guide

Tutorials are typically step-by-step instructions created to help users see how to use library resources and services effectively. Tutorials can be interactive or in video format. Some are created by library staff or curated by vendors. For example, on the Database Specific page on the lefthand menu, in the EBSCO section, you can find a curated EBSCO tutorial about using the advanced search feature of the database.
