Library Guidance

We will inform you of the library services exclusively available for GSID students.
For other information, please refer to the GSID library website.

Library guidance for new students

  • Term: April 3, 2024 to May 31, 2024
  • Target: New students (No need to take this if you have already taken with other status, but it is possible.)
  • The guidance for new students is available on TACT for the above periods. Take the course as soon as possible to learn how to use the library and prepare for classes.
  • This guidance consists of 6parts divided into 5sets of video viewing and check test submission and just submitting a check test. The entire course requires about one to one and a half hours of your time, but if you divide it into parts, you can take this in your spare time.

Library guidance for current students

  • We are preparing for a two courses and will inform you as soon as the course becomes available.
  • A: How to find open access materials: Using open access materials as a subject, we will teach you how to search for academic materials using bibliographic databases as an entry point of keyword searches.
  • B: Practical searching for articles: We will introduce you as a series of steps from searching for articles using bibliographic databases to describing the saved bibliographic data as references for your own paper.

Guidances hosted by the Central Library

  • The Central Library holds seminars on how to use various databases as needed.

 

  • Many databases have help pages and tutorial sites, so please take a look if you have any trouble.
