If you know nothing about something

take a look at Wikipedia. My search multicultural education

Because I knew nothing about how to get a topic for my paper I tried Wikipedia and searched: Multicultural Education

Within one of the links I found in the Wikipedia article selected Journals and Newspapers American Indian Culture and Research Journal It costs money to get an article from this journal This is why we have KU Libraries Ask!

From Wikipedia to the Library:

1. How do we find the journal American Indian Culture and Research Journal?
