Assignment | ENGL 1302 Annotated Bibliography (Davis-Bibb): Information Sources

ENGL 1302 | Professor Davis-Bibb (Spring 2025)

Where to Look

Now that you have an idea of what to focus on, you can start drilling down deeper on your one, specific topic. This is the real meat of your research and will give you the sources you'll use in your final paper.

Pro Tip!

Cite your sources as you go so that when you start assembling your final product, you can easily add the in-text citations. You'll be less likely to miss citations and accidentally plagiarize.

What is Discovery?

Discovery is a one search platform. You can use Discovery to search all the LSC collection at one time. All videos, ebooks, print books, magazines... everything. However, you might want to start with Current Issues Collections or JSTOR. You will find your preferred search strategy. The tutorial video here is very brief and very helpful.    →  →
