WRI 167/168 Body Matters

Hello!  We are your course librarians for Body Matters!  This semester we are leading two workshops to teach you how to use the library as part of the research process for your papers. This guide will cover a lot of that, so you can continue to refer back to this after the workshops.

We're happy to help you with this class and also any library related questions you might have. You can either email us or schedule an appointment using the button under our profile pictures to meet with one of us in person or on Zoom.

PUL - acronym for Princeton University Library

Stacks - Shelves of books

ReCAP - Shared off-site storage facility in Plainsboro. You have to request books from ReCAP. They usually arrive within 24 hours.

ILL - Interlibrary loan. Used to request books that Princeton doesn't own.

When you meet with a librarian it's helpful for us to know: 

• The details of your assignment and where you are in the process.
• Your research question and ideas for where you want to take it.
• Where you have already looked and which terms you have already tried.
