Hist 108 IR Term Paper Topic Suggestions and Bibliography
General Information: Students are reminded that even if our library does not have a particular source you need (book or journal article), they can be accessed relatively quickly and cheaply via a “Copal” card which gives you borrowing privileges at both SFU and UBC or through inter-library loan. See me for more information or talk to one of the reference librarians. Warning, if you are using inter-library loan make sure you plan ahead as it can take a couple of weeks for these materials to arrive (depends where they are coming from).
I) Journals: For the best access to journals use the searchable JSTOR abstract available via the journals/databases tab on the TWU Library catalogue page (see the link on your moodle page). For assistance see the following online tutorial https://vimeo.com/160924222/a4c924bc9a
