APA, AMA, Chicago, NLM... we'll help you decipher the many (and frequently ridiculous) rules of citation styles for your papers, discussion posts, and annotated bibs. We can also get you set-up with the life-changing application that is Zotero. (Spoiler alert: it writes your bibliographies for you.)
Build skills at your own pace with our asynchronous D2L workshops. Choose from APA 7th Edition, Zotero, Covidence and more.
We host events throughout the year like Study Breaks so that you can have a little fun after working so hard.
Follow us on Instagram and/or Bluesky to keep up with library news and events. Just search @BellackLibrary on any of those platforms to find us.
We work with Treadwell Library at the MGH to get you articles that we don't have through Interlibrary Loan at no extra cost to you. Just remember to use your IHP email address when filling out the form.
