When is a Good Time to Meet with a Librarian?
The short and sweet answer is ANYTIME!
Maybe you have an idea for a research project, but you haven’t started yet -- or, don't know where to start. Maybe you’ve started, but you’re stuck. Maybe you have a quick research question . . . or, a complicated one. Maybe it's the last minute, and your research needs a boost. When in doubt, just make an appointment!
