Exit Project Resources

Here are some resources that you can use. These are just suggestions and you should use additional resources during your project. You also must cite your sources, keep a record of what websites or other materials you used during your research and include them in your final paper. Remember that Google IS NOT a resource, you must give the exact website address where you got your information.
