Why is library instruction so important to college students?
Students used to have a problem finding enough information about research topics. Now they have the opposite problem: how to sort through and determine the usability and reliability of the flood of information available to them. That is why library instruction sessions are so important. In addition to an ever growing reference and circulating book collection, the Alden Library provides access to thirty electronic periodical and reference databases which are accessible on and off campus. The use of these resources is not particularly intuitive and our librarians know and can demonstrate valuable approaches to successful research.
