ENGL Undergraduate Courses Portal: Students

Your Librarian is Sherri Brown.

Each school/department at UVA is assigned a research librarian. Connect with Sherri for help with your assignments. This service is available to all ENGL students, and meeting with a librarian early in your research process can help you save time and find the best resources.

Sherri can help with any part of your research process: brainstorming a research topic/question and creating a search strategy; finding, evaluating and organizing your sources; integrating your sources in your writing; and creating appropriate citations. No question is too basic! Sherri can meet with you in-person or online via Zoom.

For most courses in English, the preferred citation style is MLA (always check with your professor to confirm!).
