From Olivia: Checking in, Moving Forward

(*M/W/F Classes: This Wednesday, we meet on the 3rd floor of the Library, NOT in the classroom. *T/Th Class: Library Day is Thursday.)

Next Steps:
1. You are starting your research this week. Your next assignment (check your syllabus schedule) is the Annotated Bibliography.
2. The Annotated Bibliography is a list of ten sources you will probably use for your Research Paper.
3. The Bibliography must be alphabetized according to author/first word on entry.
4. The sources must be formatted according to MLA rules.
5. Under each source, you must write 1-3 sentences explaining what information this source contains (from skimming it) and why you might use it. (These are "annotations.")
6. You can have NO MORE than two websites.
7. You must have at least one source from a book.
8. You must have at least one source from a scholarly journal.
9. Remember that your own SJ Doc Proj might be a source for your paper.
10. Remember that you can use/analyze "cultural documents" in your paper (film, literature, music, etc.).
