Selector’s Guide for Resources in the Social Sciences: An Open Access Publication

Students in the Master of Library and Information Science at Valdosta State University who completed the elective course in Social Sciences Information Services in 2011 produced bibliographies on sub-disciplines of the social sciences. Each bibliography contains representative work in the areas of professional organizations, major serials, online indexes and databases, classic monographs, standard reference works, vetted websites, moving picture documentaries, special collections, and e-government resources. The compilers of this guide offer it as a teaching tool, not a textbook. They invite professors seeking a guide to the providers and formats of information in the social sciences to use the bibliographies therein as a starting point for creating assignments for students of library and information science
