English Composition: The House on Mango Street (21:355:102): Overview

There are several ways to seek help from a librarian:

The Rutgers University Libraries Toolbar is a free Firefox extension (or add-on) that:

• provides a drop-down menu to library resources
• embeds library links on popular Websites such as Amazon.com
• offers special functionality when you highlight terms on a Website and right-click over them with your mouse
• allows linking from ISBNs, ISSNs, PubMed IDs, and DOIs to Rutgers-restricted online resources
  
• is easy to install and easy to use

This guide was put together with the goal of helping students in Instructor Juan Basualdo's Spring 2020 English Composition courses get started with finding a few sources for their research paper assignment.  It is intended to complement and supplement the library research instruction session taught.

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.

Students attending the library research session for Instructor Basualdo's ENG 102 class will learn how to:

• execute an effective search in library databases (such as Academic Search Premier or MLA International Bibliography) in order to find scholarly peer-reviewed articles about their topic

• create MLA style citations for articles using library databases (such as Academic Search Premier or MLA International Bibliography)
