Hello!

This guide was designed to help with your COMM 111 research. The library has many resources available to assist you in your research; we can help you find material, learn how to correctly use and cite information, and judge how to select the best sources for your topic. Use the tabs for help with library research, APA citation style, and avoiding plagiarism.

By clicking on the tabs, you'll find all sorts of information to help complete your speech assignments. If there's something else you think I've forgotten, send me an email and I'll be glad to add it.

Please don't hesitate to schedule a research session with me; I am always happy to meet with students to discuss specific questions!
