FILM 392R - A Century of American Comedy

March 3 Assignment

Using Library Search (books only) and the databases MLA International Bibliography and/or Film and Television Literature with Full Text, find:

  • Two scholarly books;
  • Two scholarly articles.

These should be related to your potential research area (or areas) for the final paper.

Format them according to MLA style for works cited (bibliographic) entries. Indicate which of the three resources above where you found each entry. For this assignment, it is OK simply to copy the pre-formatted MLA works cited entry generated within the item record using the "cite" function. But keep in mind that these automatically generated entries are not always 100% correct and may require manual tweaking.

Email them to Dr. James Steffen and copy Dr. Bernstein.

While searching for scholarly books and articles on your topic, take note of any questions or difficulties you encounter using the library catalog or the two databases listed above. You are welcome to email James Steffen for further help before submitting the assignment, or you can set up an in-person or virtual appointment.
