How to Evaluate: How to find Reviews
Page 1 sur 4
One way to evaluate your resources is to find reviews. Here are some AUP resources allowing you to find a
review for a specific document you want to use, or find book reviews on a topic.
Almost all of them are indexes listed on the Library website http://aup.libguides.com/databases .
In the databases listed below (in alphabetical order), you need to narrow your search by document type
“Book Review”. This limit is available on basic search or advanced search or both.
