ENG110 Unit 2 Discussion

 Unit 2 DB: Reliable Sources (ENG110)

We will practice finding a reliable source using the Library database.

• Please review this video, “How to Get to and Navigate the Library Page,” to see how to access the library.
• You can also view the readings and resources in this unit to help you navigate to the Library. Please find an article using the Library database. You will need to watch the video above for directions. The article can be about whatever subject that interests you.
• Do not use Google to find a source for this discussion; you should use only the Library database.
• If you get stumped on which topic to use for an assignment, please consult EBSCO’s Points of View Reference Center?and browse by category. This is also a great resource to use for the pros and cons of issues, and of course, you can always ask your Instructor for ideas.
