Welcome!

This Library Research Guide is a companion to your Writing Guide for SW 53. "Excavate" it for resources of value for your learning in this course.

Begin by examining the list of classical sources to familiarize yourself with sources in different genres.

When considering a source for your analysis, look up information about it and its author using reference sources.

If you'd like to conduct further research, check out the Scientific Evidence and Websites tabs.

Finally, Selection Guidelines and Topic Reading will help you exercise discernment in choosing and using classical sources in your scholarship.
