Taxation

The purpose of this guide is to help you locate and use those library resources most relevant to your research. The library spends much of its time and money on collecting, organizing, and making available to you high-quality resources. Please make use of these resources when you are doing your research, assignment, or projects.

Library Catalogue

The Library Catalogue is a good starting point. When searching for materials on a particular topic, use KEYWORD searching. Use basic Boolean Operators (AND, OR, NOT). Remember to use alternative terms and truncation to broaden your search.

The catalogue lists only journal titles, not article titles. For finding articles you need to use the databases on Library Link (Management) or MyWeb. You can search using author, title or keywords.

If you are working off campus, remember to LOGIN on the first page of the catalogue, so that you can access online journals through links on the catalogue.

Items on the same subject will be in the same call number range - (H J) in Level 3 is the area for taxation and this is useful if you want to browse the shelves for information on a particular topic.

Add more essential search terms to narrow your search
Use Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT)
