Introduction

This guide was put together with the goal of helping students in Instructor Megan Cummin's Spring 2014 English Composition course get started with finding a few sources for their research paper assignments.  It is intended to complement and supplement the March 26, 2014 library research instruction session.

By no means is this an exhaustive guide to doing research, so if you have any questions, please Ask-A-Librarian!  And if you would like to get in touch with Bonnie Fong, her contact information is along the right column.

Learning Objectives

Students attending the March 26, 2014 library research session for Instructor Cummin's ENG 102 class will learn how to:

  • find books about their topic using the Rutgers Libraries Catalog
  • find articles about their topic using library databases such as Academic Search Premier
  • e-mail citation information to themselves from library databases such as Academic Search Premier
