LIBRARY

Current Affairs/Social Issues

The Issues and Controversies database may be used to research controversial issues. It "combines objective analysis [and] clear explanations of opposing points of view...so students and other users can quickly grasp the essentials of even the most complex topics."

The CQ Researcher (Congressional Quarterly Researcher) examines a controversial issue every week, offering background information, pro and con arguments, and references for further study. Note: In addition to this online version, some issues of CQ Researcher in paper format back to 1991 are also available in the Library.

Using the Magazine, Journal, and Newspaper databases should also be considered.
