Re: Required Reading
was posted by Brian on the Studying forum'Megan, Hi. Some suggestions. Required readings could be accessible via WebCT or E-Reserve (depending on which one is used by your lecturer). If you have no luck there, you could ask one of the Reference Librarians to help with locating this speech - it might be accessible on the net. Or you could google (search by the title of the speech and use quotation marks). Send me an e-mail if you have no luck. Brian'
