Essential Reference Books/pamphlets:

  • A good dictionary: (Webster’s is preferable, but others will suffice if you are unable to get Webster’s – though they are often better for British English, than American.)
  • James D. Lester and James D. Lester, Jr., Writing Research Papers (available in Akademika in the English section). See especially the chapter on plagiarism.
  • Dorothy Burton Sk?rdal, Rules for Writing English: A Practical Handbook for Students and Teachers of English in Norway (Available through Kompendia Utsalg at Akademika).
  • Either Turabian or MLA handbook (for bibliography and footnote styles).
