Prepare: Knowing how to thoroughly research a topic  is extremely important while achieving your education. You may be asked  to support your information with peer-reviewed scholarly resources, but  how can you find this type of resource? The Ashford University Library  allows you to search through different avenues to find the requested  types of resources. You can narrow your search by the author, year  published, title, subject, and by indicating what type of resource you  are looking for. You even have access to a librarian if you need some  guidance in finding more resources on your topic.
