VIC119 Myths and Legends in Modern Contexts (Fall 2023)

Introduction

This Guide has been created for students in Professor Cathie Sutton's VIC119 Myths and Legends in Modern Contexts.  In particular, it is intended to assist your research for the Museum Label Assignment.

The guide was created and assembled by Colin Deinhardt, Librarian at the E.J. Pratt Library. Over fall 2023, while Colin is on research leave, Diane Michaud will be your contact librarian for research support this term (see the "Help is available" page for contact information).
