Welcome!

This guide highlights resources and techniques for library research and services for students in the Cluster 48: Political Violence in the Modern World: Causes, Cases, and Consequences class, but is open to anyone interested in the topic.

The Internet has brought a vast array of information to your desktop. The challenge for students is to identify the relevant sources, get to them easily, and critically evaluate their content.  Some of the following websites are licensed for UC users only, others are open to all.  Those that are licensed will not turn up in a Google search.

This guide will lead you to resources that can help you find material for your assignments. Remember that you can always ask a reference librarian for help.

Connect from Off-Campus

UCLA students, faculty, and staff can access these sites from off-campus using either the UCLA VPN Client or Bruin Online Proxy Server. If you need help setting up your computer, contact the UCLA IT Support Center at (310) 267-4357 or help@it.ucla.edu . They answer the phone 24/7 and are very helpful.
