LibAnswers

Although most of the resources in the CCCS Online Library can be used to support an argumentative essay, two databases are particularly useful:

Opposing Viewpoints in Context

Online resource covering today's hottest social issues, from capital punishment to immigration to marijuana. This cross-curricular resource supports science, social studies, current events, and language arts classes.

Points of View Reference Center

This resource covers hundreds of topics, each with an overview (objective background/description), point (argument) and counterpoint (opposing argument). It also includes academic journals, newspapers, magazines and more.

In addition to these specific resources, you can (and should) ask for help from librarians, either at your home college or with the CCS system.  We're here to help, and happy to do so.  Find out more about how to get in touch with us here.
