Ready to start that term paper? Not sure how to start? The University of Minnesota Libraries have created an assignment calculator to help students organize their time to meet their research needs. Start with today’s date, enter the date assignment is due, a timeline is provided, with research milestones. Use Duke Library links for local, on-site research assistance. For example, How do I begin my research? or Find a Librarian in my subject area? or ask for help are just a few of the services available to you through the Duke Libraries.

Might we want to create something like this for Duke undergraduates, with links to the Writing Studio and the Request a Research Consultation form?
My understanding is that the UMN model can be shared, Tufts also has a variation on the term paper navigator:http://www.library.tufts.edu/researchpaper/ Sounds like a good idea to me.
