Welcome to the BIOL 418 library course guide! This guide contains a variety of resources to help you with your research proposal assignment. This project will involve some extensive literature searching, as you may consult published research to get inspiration for a research topic to explore, to see what research has already been done on your topic, and to help you generate a hypothesis. That's where this guide comes in! Use the resources on this page and the pages linked on the left to help you find sources and manage your research process in this class.
Please reach out to your librarian, Elisabeth, with questions at any time. Her contact information is on this page.
