Finding Research Articles

Research for the Occupational Therapy program will often begin by reviewing current literature. Grace Library provides access to millions of books, articles, and videos that you can use for your research. The Library's search box allows you to search the library's online catalog, Discovery.

To start searching for academic articles, we recommend using Discovery as a starting point. Limit your search to articles by choosing the "articles" tab. In your search results, you can filter by publication date, peer-review status, and more.
