Botany

Welcome, Students !!

Use the tabs along left margin to explore library resources that will help you complete your class assignments. 


The first step in library research is choosing a topic.  Careful consideration to the selection of your topic and how to approach will make the entire research process easier, less frustrating, and more enjoyable.  Select a topic that interests you, is manageable (not too broad or too narrow), and can be completed in the time you have.  Time is your most precious commodity.  Allow sufficient time to find and read the materials and to analyze and think about the information before writing your paper.  It is important to find good, pertinent information.  It is even more important how you apply that information.
