Traditional Question:

Where is the Library?
New Question:

When is the Library?
But.....WHAT is the library?


Students recognize a subtle hierarchy of (re)search categories.

Interviewer: Do you often need just the abstract?

If it is lower division, they’re not really even paying attention, yeah, then it’s like, I can use anything. I can go to a dot com site.
