For best results as you search:

  • Think about your planned research topic and try to be as specific as possible. General searches for nutrition tend to bring back too many results, making it hard to find the information specific to your research topic.
  • Search using scientific language related to nutrition.

This guide also includes links to resources to improve your writing and citation skills.

If you need any assistance with your research, use the Help features in this guide to contact a librarian—we're happy to help!

Most Used Resources

The following resources are frequently used for finding nutrition research. OneSearch (below) also works well, since it combines many databases plus the library's book and media collections. Explore the other pages of this guide to find additional resources for your research.

OneSearch & ProQuest

Search tabs from Library homepage. Left: OneSearch. Right: ProQuestOneSearch and ProQuest are the Fulton Library's main databases. They allow you to search the library's articles, books, streaming media, and more. OneSearch and ProQuest include resources on almost every topic, making it a great place to start your research!

To use either of these databases, go to the UVU Fulton Library Homepage link below. Use the tabs in the search box to navigate between OneSearch and ProQuest. Enter search terms into the box, then hit enter or click the magnifying glass. 

We recommend using both databases because, while there is some overlap between the two, each database features a lot of unique content.
