Hello! My name is Mark Smith and I am a reference and research librarian here at Upstate. I hope you find this guide helpful finding sources for your English U102 class. The tabs at the top of the page should point you in the right direction. I have tried to make this guide as easy to use as possible, and think it covers most of the questions you may have. If there is anything I left off or can be of any help to you, please feel free to contact me directly. Good luck!
This guide was created to help you with your research. Use the tab(s) at the top of the page to guide you..
Do not pull your hair out searching for sources!
