If your students are working on a research assignment, please have them visit the Librarians at the Reference Desk (main floor of the library, 2nd floor) to get help. Students may also set up a one-on-one appointment with a librarian in advance.
The Appointment with a Librarian service allows you to reserve appointments with librarians for up to one hour of uninterrupted, personalized research assistance. If you want to meet with a librarian in-person or online, please email us at mcreference@vcccd.edu.
Librarians can assist students with:
- Developing a research strategy
- How to use the research databases (EBSCOhost, etc.)
- Locating sources such as books and articles
- Citation help (MLA, APA, etc.)
