It is a chance to meet with a librarian, and get individual help on research. The librarian will talk with you about your assignment, the types of information you need, the resources you can use, and explain to you how to use them.
The librarian has more time to handle your questions without interruptions. Advance scheduling allows the librarian to investigate your topic before-hand. We request one full business day notice to make these arrangements.
"Google can bring you back a hundred thousand answers. A librarian can bring you back the right one." - Neil Gaiman
