Remote Diplomacy Research
Welcome to the DIPL 21
20 Guide!
We want to help get you acclimated to the SHU Libraries website. This site will help in all of your classes.
Take special note of News and Citation sources.
Be sure to view our video tutorials. They will teach you core searching skills that will save you time all year long.
An example of a searching trick - when searching for a newspaper article or book title, remove any extra punctuation like colons (:) or commas (,). Simplifying your search will sometimes get you better results.
