Need to write a literature review for your Sproj, master’s thesis, or a course you're taking, but unsure what the heck one is? This workshop--which will give you hands-on practice constructing a review--is for you. You'll also learn why the literature review is a crucial element of research writing, how it differs from an annotated bibliography, and tips for writing a good one. Please join Jane Smith, associate director for library writing support, on Wednesday, October 28, from 7–8:15 pm in the Stevenson Library Classroom on the second floor (room 206).
