RECOMMENDED DATABASES Criminology databases: Criminal Justice Abstracts: Major Crim database: covers crime trends, prevention & deterrence, juvenile justice, legal issues, psychology, and more. Wide variety of resources including journal articles. National Criminal Justice Reference Service: Focus on law enforcement, crime prevention & security, criminal justice, juvenile justice.

Sociological Abstracts: Major sociology database, emphasis on sociocultural topics, including criminology, policy, and education

Working with your topic Focusing your topic Example topic: Hooliganism and sports One strategy is to ask yourself: Who? Men, women, youth, Canadians, people in UK … What? Soccer, hockey, riots, vandalism … When? Now, 10 years ago, 1990s, a specific event (Stanley Cup, World Cup) … Where? Vancouver, Canada, UK, international … Why? Alcohol, policy/regulations, effects … Tip: Look for an encyclopedia article on the topic to help you identify issues!

Question: How would you narrow down this topic? Exercise: 1-2-4-all Example topic: recidivism and young offenders Question: How would you narrow down this topic? Structure of the exercise: 1 min: solo reflection (silent – write down your thoughts) 2 min: share in pairs 4 min: share in foursomes (notice similarities & differences) All: share 1 idea from your discussion with the group as a whole Consider: Who? What? When? Where? Why?

WORKING WITH YOUR TOPIC Example topic: recidivism and young offenders Question: How would you narrow down this topic? Consider: Who? What? When? Where? Why?
