Assignment 2: Library Assignment

To complete this week’s assignment, you will need to use the South University Online Library to locate four sources about your Week 5 essay topic (see: Week 5 Literary Analysis for more detailed information). In Week 5 you will either write about The Metamorphosis or The Wasteland. For each source, you will create a references page entry followed by a short paragraph in which you evaluate that source. In this paragraph, you will explain why the source is appropriate for the essay you are writing. 

Read Chapter 9 in The New Century Handbook about how to judge sources. Then click here for guidelines for determining whether a source is credible and scholarly.

This is an assignment that will require you to spend some time researching, so plan accordingly. The key to locating suitable library sources is to choose appropriate databases in which to search. For example, a student writing about Kafka’s The Metamorphosis  chooses to search under the General Education category and then clicks on the JSTOR resource. Having accessed JSTOR, the student types: Kafka The Metamorphosis  and after reviewing the selections available, the student chooses to download Kafka’s Humor, a scholarly journal article by Jean Collignon. The sources that you choose can be ebooks, chapters in books, scholarly journal articles, or credible online materials. Librarians are available to help you with your research .
