Library Peer Research Assistant Program
Can’t find sources for your paper? Need a scholarly article but don’t know where to start? And how do you cite a podcast in MLA, anyway? Peer Research Assistants are available to help you with any questions you have about finding, using, evaluating, and citing information. These undergraduate peer tutors provide guidance on using the MSU Libraries and other resources to help you successfully complete papers, posters, presentations and more.
