Welcome to the Composition I Research Guide! This guide will help you to find and use information appropriate for academic writing. It also contains materials to help you master the research process from developing a topic to citing your sources.
Information Literacy is a PROCESS!
The Information Literacy Standards Give One Model of the Research Process:
Topic = Know Your Information Need
Search = Access the Needed Information
Evaluate = Evaluate Information Critically
Share = Use Information Effectively for a Purpose
Cite = Use Information Ethically
You may be asked to complete the Library Virtual Tour and assignment by your Composition instructor. If you have already completed the assignment for University 101, print and present the confirmation you receive by email to prove that you have done the tour.
