Lecture Notes
Where to Find the Reading?
In some cases the reference section of the lecture notes already includes a link to help you find the reading.
If there is no link in the lecture notes, start by searching for the title (and, if that fails, by title and authors) on google scholar. If this fails, the library has resources. If those fail, please check first with others on the course. If you still have problems, you may email your seminar tutor.
