LSU Libraries
The LSU Libraries have a number of resources to help students with gathering research for their essays. UWP courses often ask students to utilize library resources. Not sure where to start? You can book an appointment with a Subject Specialist Librarian who can help guide your research, and even provide tips on the best books and databases to find information for your paper topic. The LSU Library also makes research guides, which include a helpful list of links and tutorials for finding research on a number of subjects, including how to access the LSU library databases.
Service-Learning with the UWP
