If my professor says I can't use the Internet for my paper, am I limited to using books?
Answer
This will depend on your instructor, but the general answer is: Not at all! You may not be able to use open web resources, but you can probably still use electronic resources, such as eBooks (found through our library catalog) or newspaper, magazine, or journal articles (check our databases). Many of these resources are simply electronic versions of print information, meaning that they are still scholarly, and will probably work for your paper. You can always run potential resources by your instructor, or ask a librarian if you have any questions.
