Welcome to the Literature Research Guide!
Here at RCBC we believe in guaranteeing easily accessible, affordable content to benefit the learning experience of our students, enriching them academically, and professionally, in their chosen career path.
Think of a Lib Guide as a digital filing cabinet, full of tools that can do everything from enhance supplementary instruction to provide relevant, topical resources that will benefit a student’s prospective job hunt and professional development well beyond the classroom.
Lib Guides are part of a grant-funded RCBC initiative pertaining to freely available Open Educational Resources (OERs), which aim to change higher education into a comprehensive and diverse experience that works to serve students and ensure success is always within their reach.
RCBC’s Literature Lib Guides contains a host of relevant databases such as the Literary Reference Center, Artemis Literary Sources, and NoveList, and additional links to resources on canonical writers that are the subjects of frequent collegiate studies such as Mark Twain, Jack London, and Ralph Waldo Emerson, as well as links to help with vocabulary expansion and MLA citations.
