This page is a resource for students to use when writing academic papers. It offers information on places to gather articles for one’s research, citation guides, definitions of plagiarism and academic integrity as well as a number of tutorials to walk students through certain aspects of composing a good paper. For example: how to find useful books and articles for sources and use Binghamton University’s library resources to one’s advantage. This web page is offered by Binghamton University and the author is subject librarian, Bern Mulligan. It was updated last on September 14th 2010 so its information is current and is helpful to aid students in finding proper sources and putting together a good research assignment. This website is valuable for our course media studies because it provides so many tools to help with the abstract assignment as well as any academic paper in general.
