Research Paper Sources

Nov. 25, 2009

English 3 students:

I wanted to give you some time to conduct research, but I also need you to send me "preliminary" sources you think could be useful for your research paper.

Today I want you to do the following in the "comment" section.

-Write your name (not a crazy internet ID) at the beginning of the post.
  • Submit your research topic. (Yes I have it, but this way I don't have to look around for it).
  • Provide your two sources and cite them in MLA format.

  1. I can't access them for some reason. They're from EBSCOhost.
    I linked them using my Diigo account, though.

  2. Kerienne,

    A couple of things:

    1.) When you sign on EBSCOhost, make sure sign in. If you have not done so yet, register an account and you can save your sources.

    2.) The diigo links do not come up when I type in the url. However, I am going to add you to my list of friends on diigo. So no need to resend.

    -Thanks!
