Dictionary: a book or electronic resource that lists the words of a language (typically in alphabetical order) and gives their meaning, or gives the equivalent words in a different language, often also providing information about pronunciation, origin, and usage. [Oxford Dictionaries]

The UOC’s Library has created a library guide compiling lexicographical reference works. The compilation is being published in order to help people address doubts relating to spelling and vocabulary. It should be especially useful to bachelor’s degree students wanting to clarify basic concepts, and for anyone seeking to rid their final project of errors.

The compilation also offers resources grouped thematically, so whatever branch of knowledge you are interested in, the basic information should be easy to find.
