Gather Resources

Remember that the Longwood library has some great librarians willing to help you get started with your literary searching. Our library also has many databases you can use to help refine that literature search better than you can with Google Scholar. Make sure to check out these resources or even schedule an appointment with your librarian.

Writing Center

Need an extra set of eyes to help you look over the writing process or simply struggling to figure out where it is all going?

The writing center can help you get back on track and ensure your thesis is as strong as it can be.

Plan to make at least two appointments with the Writing Center. One should help you get started and another for reviewing the nearly completed draft.
