The catalogue for UWC Library is SmartSearch. All Library materials are carefully selected to meet your learning and research needs. |

Internet Search Engines, like Google, allow you to search the Internet for your topic. You can quickly find items of true value, but they are mixed in with items of little or no value. It can be time consuming to sift, sort, and select before you find something truly useful. You can also try Google Scholar, which limits to items from scholarly journals. |
