Credo Reference

What is Credo Reference?  Why should I be interested?  How can I make use of this tool?

Credo Reference is a publisher who specializes in reference titles.  A reference title is a book that is known to be a good source of information for research papers and is typically kept in the Reference section of the library.  Usually Reference books are available for in-house use only.  However, since Credo Reference is offered online, you are now able to access this material from the comforts of your own home.

The Ritz Library recently purchased a subscription to Credo. Per Credo's website, "Credo Reference puts the world's best citable information at your fingertips."  What does it mean at the Ritz?  In short, we now have access to 100 book titles that you can use for research online.

To take a look at the titles that we have access to, check out the Ritz Library Guides which may be found by logging onto myDCC --> Library tab --> How do I find information for research projects? --> Ritz Research Guides.  On most of the pages, the widget to access Credo can be found in the upper left hand corner listed under the title "Basic Information".
