Depending on what source type(s) your assignment requires, there are a few ways to find information on this topic. Our Discovery Catalog searches through a lot of our databases all at once and is found on our library homepage (big main search bar). It can be a good place to start to cast a wide net to see what is available. It will even find items the library doesn't own, but can possibly get via interlibrary loan (ILL) – though you can limit those results out after doing a search to items just held by the TCC Library. ILL is a free service for TCC students and employees. Here is an FAQ that teaches you how to use the catalog.

For a list of all of our databases, see the "Articles & Databases" link off the library website.
