Introduction

Going GREEN at Gumberg!

This guide to research is designed to educate and connect Duquesne University Gumberg Library researchers to a wide array of Research on subject areas surrounding sustainability. All formats are available through Duquesne University Gumberg Library in print or by electronic means.  The tabs direct users to our research databases, electronic reference works, selected print reference works, relevant periodicals, selected books, and e-books.  Additionally, you will learn efficient ways of searching the online catalog to find books and e-books. The guide also highlights the university's efforts to promote and sustain green initiatives on campus and in the community. The latter portions of this guide provide users with reputable web sources including, but not limited to, environmental associations and agencies. Lastly, there is a tab for citation assistance and one to show users how to retrieve materials not available at Gumberg Library.​
