• shows you how to formulate the backbone structure of your research paper;
• guides you to create and/or revise a research question and put together a combined information and literature search strategy;
• in case you already have a draft, it allows you to check your research question and search strategy against Scribo’s suggestions and guidelines;
• helps you prepare a written text for your next meeting with your supervisor and/or research librarian. 

 When working on a group project, each member should use Scribo individually before the group coordinates the drafts. Everything you write in Scribo can be saved and exported to a text file, and drafts for the (revised) introduction, your research question, a section on sources, on theory, and on methods and procedure. You can of course produce and export a (draft) synopsis which you can send to your supervisor in advance of an upcoming meeting.
