Click here to see the full details of the final paper assignment. This assignment is scaffolded into multiple steps. Please keep track of all deadlines! I also encourage you to review the Video Writing Lesson and other resources on the Writing Resources page.

How do I get in touch with a Librarian?

  • Email asklib@washjeff.edu
  • Specify three days of the week and times you can meet with a Librarian
  • Be prepared to spend up to one hour with the Librarian
  • An available Librarian (Kelly, Ronalee, Beth, Sam, or Jackie) will contact you to set up an appointment. Any Librarian is capable of helping with your assignment. They will have a copy of the assignment sheet and be familiar with the HIS 240 Libguide.
  • You should bring/have any materials you have already prepared for the assignment to your meeting (topic, research, outline)
