This LibGuide is designed to help you locate relevant literature for your case study in ecological restoration. Be sure to use the VPN if you are away from the UF wireless network in order to gain full-text access to library resources. As you prepare your presentation, cite your sources for full credit. For assignments in this class, use the citation format preferred by the journal, Restoration Ecology.  See Literature Cited section of the journal's Author Guidelines. 

Restoration Ecology citation format is one of the citation styles available in EndNote Basic for the UF community. Here is a short video to demonstrate how to add this citation style and use it. (3 min)

You can collect citations to credible, scholarly literature from a number of sources, including directly from reading the article on the publisher's website. Here is a short video tutorial on how to save the citation to an article published in Restoration Ecology into EndNote Basic. (4 min)

Contact me if you have having trouble finding appropriate information for your project. Have fun researching!

1. Set up the UF VPN: When you're off campus, you will need to use the UF VPN software for full access to electronic databases, journals and books.
2. Access Course Reserves to read materials shared with your class by your instructor. Digital materials may be shared in Ares or in Canvas.
3. Search the library catalog for books, journals, and many other resources. The catalog includes print and digital items from all library branches.
4. Sign in to check your account status or renew material. You can request or renew materials and check your library account from the catalog, after signing in with your Gator ID (click Sign In in top right corner).
5. Search scholarly databases to find articles in journals: If you are trying to decide which database is appropriate for your research, look at the list of databases listed on the Journal Articles tab. Library databases offer many features unavailable in Google Scholar.
6. Create an Interlibrary Loan (ILL) account. Use ILL to request books and journal articles not owned by the UF Libraries. The ILL office will borrow the material you need from another library and send you an email when it's ready for you to use.
7. Enjoy the UF Libraries! We encourage respectful use of these public places. Read more about appropriate conduct here.
