New Strategies from Librarian
• Research Consultations– Paper slips handed out twice in class– Overwhelming response
![Page 24: Replacing Old Bridges with New](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5681499e550346895db6e1c9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Firming Up the Foundation – Results!
• 113 students –> 94 completed papers (83.2%)• 78.25% passed paper with C- or better• Progressive improvement in student-selected
sources• Increased student interaction with librarians,
Writing Center, and course professor• 56 FLITE research consultations

Student Quote
• “Thank you for your teaching. . . .I think you should keep the length of your research paper the same next semester because it has helped me in Eng 150. I have an A in that class thanks to your teaching in reading sources and writing papers.”
