Join us on Zoom at the day and time below to learn how to find single subject studies and identify other kinds of research designs. You'll also have the opportunity to ask questions, try new search techniques, and get feedback about your topic. 

When: Tuesday, Week 3 of the course term from 6:00-7:00 PM

Where: https://nu.zoom.us/j/9211699674 (new link as of June 2022)

Please note that our monthly library workshops are not typically recorded. You will find links to an archived workshop slide presentation under the Workshop Materials tab in this box. If you would like a recording of a past workshop, please email Benita at bghura@nu.edu.
