OWL Purdue is another option if you need help with APA citation.

As an alternative to starting with Google, we’re going to look at TDSB’s Virtual Library for your research.

Remember to select your Grade range (9-12) and subject area (Science &/or Health) before starting to search in the yellow FIND tile.

Some options to consider:

Remember that the databases are password-protected and some of the passwords have changed since last year. You will need to be logged into AW to access these resources. Look for the orange Passwords & Info icon in the Virtual Library if you’re researching at home.
