Tutorials

These tutorials were designed to provide assistance and help you search our catalog and databases when you cannot get help from someone at the library.  Some of them were created by the database companies, others were developed by the UTPA Library staff.

These tutorials work best with high speed Internet access, such as a network connection or cable Internet access.  These tutorials open in a second browser.
