The Purdue Online Writing Lab
Purdue's site offers extensive resources for the writer. There is a collection of online "handouts" addressing a broad range of writing topics. It also includes guides to various types of writing, such as business and job-search writing and writing in the social sciences.

RefWorks
A tool for managing your sources throughout a research project. RefWorks allows you to import sources from the library catalog or databases, and helps you generate in-text citations and lists of references. You'll need to contact a librarian for the Simmons Group Code before logging in for the first time.

Check out the RefWorks Workshops in L225 for a comprehensive introduction: Wednesdays 4:30-5:30 / Thursdays 1:30-2:30.
