Resource Library
The Center's resource library consists of everything from style manuals for documenting sources in specific disciplines to grammar and usage guides, books by writers on writing, research guides, general writing handbooks and writing references. Consultants and writers frequently refer to these texts during sessions, and visitors are welcome to use them on your own in the Center. We also have a variety of texts frequently used in UCD Composition, Business Writing, and Technical Writing courses, and we offer texts for graduate students on qualitative and quantitative research methods, writing a prospectus, thesis writing and dissertation writing.
Free Handouts
In addition to books, we have online handouts available to help with everything from documentation to commas. Click here for a list of available "How-To Guides."
Computers
For technology, we offer the use of six computers, including one ADA-compliant PC complete with ZoomText and TextHelp for students with special needs, as well as one Mac G5. Visitors are welcome to use these to work on their writing before, during or after consultations.
