English 1000 Course Research Guides
Some English 1000 classes have highly specialized assignments which involve research components that can be challenging. Each "Sourcepack" listed below points to specially selected resources (exact books, certain subject databases, specific subject headings in the book catalog, etc.) which we believe directly address the research needs of students in these particular classes.
For general information on how to conduct research in the library overall, we invite you to explore the links in the left navigation bar.
