    I am sitting this exam thursday next ( 20th May ) and I am seriously nervous...

    For the past 2months iv been juggling like 5 modules and working continuously on them.. I don't know why I choose the Irish National Cinema now.. as I have never done a film analysis based modules before.. I have very little independent thinking or specific terminology needed to subjectively argue a film...

    I know we received the exam questions but... last week I checked in the library and * there is not one book relevant to what I need..

    Any Multimedia, CS or JR students out there that could recommend any websites, forums, ebooks, journals etc that in some way help me???

    FML...

    I'm not doing the exam but I won't be a twat about it at least.

    Google scholar is handy - lots of scope, but sometimes you find something perfect and it wont let you read the whole article. Google Books too.

    And there's the A-Z of databases on the DCU site here. Think you can only access some of them while your in DCU, but I could be wrong on that.

    This might be handy for you too.
    There's the E-books too, but I've never used them myself.

    Anyway, good luck!

    Yeah aside from the library e-books, there are plenty of books online nowdays. You can actually access the databases from off campus, just go through the dcu library site and you'll be asked to enter your username and stuff, so you will have access to the whole article if DCU has it. If you find a book in another library you could arrange for the library to get it via a transfer or something, or get a friend in another college to get it.
