Malpass Library

Hello, and welcome to Malpass Library! I have prepared this guide to supplement the information that I will share in our library session. In the session, you will learn about using the library to find sources for your informative speech. You will learn how to identify different types of resources and use the library's research databases to find books and articles. I encourage you to contact me if you have suggestions. My contact information is in the box to the right. Happy searching!
