Research Workshop: The RTS Jackson library provides a one-on-one or small group research workshop throughout the semester that follows the steps presented in From topic to thesis: a guide to theological research by Michael Kibbe.

If you would like to enhance your research skills, or need assistance with a research topic, please contact library staff to schedule an appointment.

Free access to more databases: If you register at a Jackson/Hinds Public Library for a library card, you may then have access to the MAGNOLIA project databases and resources.

MAGNOLIA is a statewide consortium funded by the Mississippi Legislature which provides online research databases for publicly funded schools and libraries throughout Mississippi.

Databases available include Religion & Philosophy Collection (excellent database,) Academic Search Premier, and MasterFILE Premier, these all provide the full-text of articles. For participating library locations, go to jhlibrary.org
