Center for Advanced Studies in Child Welfare

For Students

Resource Room


The Resource Room is an excellent place to go for ideas and informally published materials.

CASCW's Resource Center contains child welfare books, journals, videos and training manuals. Faculty and current Title IV-E MSW and Ph.D. students may borrow materials for up to one week.

A complete list of our holdings is available on-line. For an instruction sheet on how to use RefWorks click here. You can access it by going to the U of M library page and clicking on RefWorks or by clicking here.

The Resource Center is in 205D Peters Hall and is open during regular Center hours (Mon-Fri, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM).
