Dragon Education Core

This guide has been created to help with the research process throughout the Dragon Education Core or the DEC courses. The library is here to help in the research process from the beginning stages of figuring out your topic to using discovery tools and citing your sources.

The guide begins by introducing you to the library and creating a reference point throughout your Tiffin University Education. Each page is then dedicated to research in one of the courses in the dragon education core courses.
