Database of the month

The Libraries is promoting featured resources, such as subject-specific databases or digitized collections which may be suitable for research and study, on a monthly basis. The database of this month is a research tool for various disciplines.

SAGE Research Methods

(http://find.lib.hku.hk/record=HKU_IZ61567239360003414) is a tool to help researchers, faculty and students with their research projects. It links to SAGE's renowned books, journals and reference content, you can get a quick dictionary definition or watch the research in action through a video tutorial. Since it focuses on methodology rather than disciplines, it can be used across the social sciences, education, psychology, and other subject areas. The “Project Planner” guides you in every stage of your research. You can choose a methodology in the “Methods Map” and launch it into your research.
