The Life-Changing Magic of Instructional Videos

Are you in a research funk? Sometimes, it is hard to know where to start when beginning the research project. Likewise, the research process can easily become daunting. The D’Youville College Library wants to help make the research process straightforward and easy for you, which is why we created a new page within our website to help you find instructional video tutorials.

Who doesn’t love watching videos? Sometimes an instructional video is the easiest way to learn something new in regards to research. We have created a series of instructional videos that highlight search techniques for a variety of our library resources, including several of our most used databases. We have also designed several instructional tutorials on how to use Spartan Search to conduct research. In addition, we have curated YouTube video playlists for many of our library resources to help further assist you with all of your academic research ventures. You don’t have to figure it out on your own. We are here to help!

The newest video tutorial we created is How to Search Within a Specific Academic Journal Using Spartan Search. This video gives step-by-step instructions on how to use Spartan Search to search within any specific academic journal available through D’Youville College. This video will be useful for assignments that require you to utilize a specific academic journal such as the American Journal of Occupational Therapy. You can find this tutorial on the new instructional video webpage under the Highlighted Video header.
