Welcome to your SSW 120 guide!
This guide has been created to support your SSW 120 assignments.
Please visit Research Help to book a research appointment with a library staff member.
Library databases organize subjects through the use of controlled vocabularies. These work in the same way as tags in photo sharing communities and other social media platforms.
If you find an article that is relevant to your chosen topic, take a look at the keywords and subject terms that the databases use to describe it.
Some subject terms that may be useful to explore are listed here with the topics that your instructor has provided.
