(University of Regina Library, 2023-01) Fischer, Grace
The Fall 2022 semester started my second year as an English Honours student at the
University of Regina. Each 200-level course I chose came with various new challenges
compared to the previous year. One crucial challenge I experienced was finding scholarly
sources for my english, politics, and criminology research papers. At the beginning of the fall
semester, I needed to learn how to search for specific topics appropriately, and I was unaware of
the different databases for each subject. However, I decided to make an appointment with a
librarian to see if they would be able to point me in the right direction when it came to using the
library’s resources. The librarian was extremely helpful and showed me two specific databases
that provided scholarly articles in politics and criminology. Because of his help, I found
scholarly sources for my upcoming English research paper on “Lanval” by Marie de France.
