Welcome to the GWS / POL 285 research guide! This is a good place to start looking for primary and secondary sources (evidence) for your final project. Research requires us to be flexible and adaptable so we can persevere through roadblocks. Research is iterative, not linear. This means as we gather information, we may also be refining our research topic or question. Research can be messy but exciting. It requires time, patience and perseverance. If you need assistance at any step of the way, please contact Anna (ahulsebe@gustavus.edu) or stop by the reference desk!
