Need Research Help?

Do you have questions about how to write your research paper? Not sure if you are using the right citation format? How are science papers different from english papers? You can find books to help you with all aspects of the writing process from coming up with a topic to how and when to use data in a scientific paper. We have the series A Short Guide to Writing About that includes subjects such as Literature, History, Art, Film, and Biology. Here are a few of the other titles on display:
