Use the library when you need a short definition, want to learn a subject in order, or have time for a longer reading. A glossary entry can lead to a collection of related terms. A topic introduction can lead to its subtopics and related guides.
How to read the guides
The journal, collections and seasonal guides explain and organize material. Read the conditions and exceptions that apply to a passage, especially if you plan to use it in a different situation. Follow the links to available readings for more context. A published guide offers general information. For guidance on your own case, consult a qualified scholar.
