Research

Research Resources – This is an abridged, introductory list

The sites below are where you should supplement all preliminary research (start with the UMD, Duluth Municipal, and CSS library sites). They also serve as guides – whether for research, or for the news assignments – for what constitutes credible and scholarly sources of information. Whenever the word “research” is used for this class, start here (not Google, Bing, Wikipedia, etc. ….)
