Take a few moments to actually sit down and spend time thinking and writing about your topic.
Ask yourself questions like:
Once you've done that, go back and review what you've written and look for keywords, ideas, and themes to help start your searching.
Use the menu to navigate to resources to help you with your research paper for English. Although the library has a ton of great resources to choose from, your librarian has chosen a selection of the best tools they think are appropriate for your paper. this includes library databases, resources for books and ebooks, reference books for background information and support, and other resources they think might be useful. You will also find Citation and Evaluation resources.
If you need help at any point, you can chat with a CSM Librarian, reach out to your English librarian for help, or schedule an appointment with any of our qualified CSM librarians.
