Thanks for the help!
Very few first-year students know of the existence of these resource databases. This has
been an “eye-opening” session. Thanks!
It was great. Thanks.
Helpful to learn how to use the indexes to find info.

Very helpful – enthusiastic.
Thank you!
I like that we do our own activities.
These sessions are very useful!
Maybe there could be more sessions around this time because you don’t realize until you
have assignments due that you can’t/don’t know how to “Find Journal Articles.”
Very helpful!
