Delivery of Materials to DE Students

Materials from the UWSP collection, or from other library collections can be delivered to you.  You can use the Interlibrary loan form to request books or articles from our print collection.  ILL also provides delivery of materials from other libraries.   Be sure to explain that you are taking an online course in the notes field of the form.

Finding Articles

The following databases all cover a wide variety of topics.  Academic Search includes more academic, scholarly content, while  Masterfile and Readers' Guide are better for current events and general interest topics.  For general interest and news articles before 1980 use Readers' Guide Retrospective.
