Introductions

Welcome to the Library Guide for EN 104 - Voices From Around The World - taught by Professor DePino. It will introduce you to secondary sources in Geisel Library that pertain to the themes concerning cultural identity that are embraced in your readings. All of the resources mentioned can be accessed either on campus - or remotely by entering in the S number on the back of your student ID.

The Guide will also serve as a 'reality check', reminding you of the search tips you picked up during the library segment of your EN 103 class last term, providing helpful examples. You will also be introduced to special tools and library services that will make the process of searching and locating relevant materials a bit easier.
