The IUP Libraries and Jones White Writing Center are sponsoring a Research Writing Party! Come to Stabley 2nd floor (in the Library) to learn more about research and writing-oriented services, meet with reference librarians and writing tutors, and much more! Our research party will feature:
- Therapy Dogs
- Free pizza and refreshments
- Writing-related games and prizes
- Tutorials and information on research and writing at IUP
- Prize drawings every 30 minutes for students and faculty who visit the party
Students will be able to ask questions, sign up for a tutorial, get handouts and help sheets on various information. Students can “drop in” for a short while or stay for the party and work with our Writing Center and Library staff on a one-on-one or small group tutorial.
Faculty who bring their students are also entered for prize drawings.
Some of the topics include:
- Learning how research is done in different fields including STEM, Business, Education, Social Sciences, and Humanities
- Getting help with finding and integrating sources
- Using library databases and search features
- Writing research-based arguments
- Integrating sources and avoiding plagiarism
- Organizing your sources and writing
- Finding your voice as an academic writer
- Resources from the Writing Center and Library
We look forward to seeing you there!
