Communication Sciences and Disorders

Welcome to your Communication Sciences and Disorders subject guide. 

 Library guides are created to help learners of all levels access library resources that will help them conduct effective research in their disciplines. You will find research tips, contextual information, and resources of various kinds depending on the type of guide you are looking at.

To get started with this guide, work through the tabs on the left or click through the navigation arrows at the bottom of each page. Depending on your needs, you can move through each page of the guide sequentially, or you can skip ahead to the information that is most relevant to your research. 

If you need help defining a research question, finding information, or synthesizing the information that you've already found, don't hesitate to schedule an appointment with one of the librarians featured on the bottom left of this page. We are here to help. 

Research conducted by the faculty in Baylor's Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders covers a wide range of issues related to human communications including aphasia, audiology, speech pathology, and American Sign Language. The projects undertaken, and the instructional opportunities they inspire ensure CSD students at all levels are exposed to a wide variety of perspectives and gain a deep awareness of the science of communication.

This guide contains:

• General information about library services and resources across all disciplines.
•  Research recommendations specific to communication sciences and disorders.
• Information about Open Educational Resources

This library guide is part of our “spotlight on the disciplines” literacy tier. In this tier you will be introduced to advanced academic research skills. These skills are developed by working with research librarians in upper-level courses specific to their discipline. The spotlight represents the in-depth instruction, library guides, advanced search strategies, and research consultations provided by the research & engagement librarians.
