ENGL 1301 Taggett: Home

Hi, everyone! My name is Jane Stimpson, and I am your class librarian.

Why is a librarian in your D2L page? Because the Lone Star College libraries and librarians support at least one of the ENGL 1301 course learning outcomes:

• Develop ideas with appropriate support and attribution, following standard style guidelines in documenting sources

Librarians are professionally trained to help students:

• Use the library
• Find information
• Evaluate information
• Use information responsibly, including citation

Notice the tabs running across the side of this guide: they all correspond to each major assignment component you have in this class. Click on the appropriate tab to find recommend resources, research tips, and links to videos, websites, and presentations that will help you with research and citation for each assignment.

So if you have any questions at all about using the library, finding your sources, or citing them, don't hesitate to get in touch! There are lots of ways:

• Post a question (even anonymously) to the Research and Citation Help discussion board in your D2L page
• Email me at jane.d.stimpson@lonestar.edu
