Colorado State Libraries: Boolean Searching [1] Good use of images, quick, to-the-point (added by Beth)
University of Texas Libraries: How to Locate Books, Articles [2] I like that they have devoted a webpage to each tutorial topic that includes both the text of the main concepts and the tutorial itself. I think we could do the same in a LibGuide. (added by Beth)
Webster University Library: Using Article Linker to Connect to Full Text [3] Maybe a bit long but I think it explains the process very clearly and is easy for a student to understand. Straightforward and simple. (added by Beth)
Vaughan Memorial Library: Acadia University [4] Very attractive, comprehensive tutorials. Looks like they are available for other institutions to use. (added by Beth)
