You need to incorporate at least 4 sources into your paper. Do not use wikipedia/cliffnotes, etc., as sources. Comments by our authors in our textbooks as well as the tales themselves do not count as required sources--these would be extra sources. You need to use serious books and articles available at the NYIT library and elsewhere for your source material. Peer-reviewed articles are generally very good sources. Many students make an appointment with a reference librarian at NYIT for extra support and I HIGHLY recommend this course of action. You can make the appointment online.
