know their research is
invalid. | see lots of wikis,
amazons, and Buzzfeeds
in papers. Many students
(including my first college
paper) had no idea the
library database existed.”
“Allibrarian could offer inf
regarding research that a writing
center staff member could not.”
“really enjoy having the
librarians around, because |
can always go up to them with
questions without having to go
through a long process.”
