Sometimes your assignment or research may require you to use resources that were written by or published in Canada. Centennial Libraries contain lots of resources that are produced in Canada.
Try some of the databases listed below (making sure to follow the searching tips on this guide) or list Canad* as the subject of your search, as in the example below. Note how in this search, we have changed the drop-down from "Any field" to "Subject". This ensures Canada is the subject of the search. Otherwise, you may get results that are simply published in Canada or written by a Canadian.
