This research guide serves as a starting point for physics research.  Use Getting Started to discover where to find good overviews and quick information.  Find Books/Media will show you how to search and browse in the catalog while Find Articles will help you figure out how to search and browse databases and electronic journals for scholarly articles, newspaper items, etc.  Find Articles also takes you to a list of "best" databases for physics.

Resources included in Data / Formulas / Laws / Effects provide brief definitions, calculations, and/or specific data for physics and physics-related topics.  How Do I... covers common questions such as "How do I cite a source" or "How do I get things not at Hunter Library?"
