This resource guide is designed to assist you in locating primary and secondary sources for use in HIS 351 "Water Justice" with Dr. Newfont during Fall semester 2020. Resource categories are broken up by tab, where you can explore research materials, books, and articles. The resources below will walk you through how to search, request, and work with materials from UK's Special Collections Research Center. The primary sources included in this guide all come from the UK SCRC, but the secondary sources are available through the InfoKat Discovery online catalog. While the primary sources do have a general focus on Kentucky, they may also lead to research paths or stories that may be of interest.
Anyone wishing to use SCRC materials, order digital scans, visit the Breckinridge Research Room, or use the Breckinridge Digital Studio must first create an SCRC Research Account. Depending on your relationship to UK, your login method will vary.
