Social Work

Tips for searching:

• After you submit a search, use the filters to improve your results. You can filter between print and ebook, articles, which Pepperdine library has it, and more!
• Use quotation marks around phrases to enhance your results. For example "social work" will produce only results that contain those two words together and in that order
• Use TI: before your search words to search just the titles of things and use AU: before an author's name to see their works

Browsing the shelves at one of our libraries? Look for books with the following letters on their labels:

• HV - Social pathology. Social and public welfare
• BF - Psychology
• RA - Public aspects of medicine
• RC - Internal medicine, includes psychiatric treatment

If you find any articles, books, or book chapters you would like to read but cannot access through the Pepperdine Libraries you can make a request to ask other libraries to send it to you. To request something, either locate it using the library search and click the request button on the item page or fill out the form manually following this link: https://pepperdine.account.worldcat.org/account/requests/
