Warning

If you are doing research for your job rather than for your program, I want to remind you that it will be very tempting to take the reports and articles you find in library-sponsored databases and pass them on. Passing on the reports and articles you find in these databases would be in violation of our agreements with the vendors. You may use the information you find in these resources for the purpose of YOUR educational studies only. If your company wants to read or take action on the information from these sources, they will have to purchase copies themselves.
