Reference Staff Can Help By:
Suggesting specific CFCC reference books—as well as any special searching strategies for their indexes—which might contain answers to a particular question
Teaching use of the catalog, including its advanced features, or recommending alternative search terms—especially Library of Congress subject headings
Compiling a list of books on a particular subject or by a particular author
Taking the user directly to the shelves for browsing, or finding an item that isn’t where it’s supposed to be
Helping with selection of the best CFCC subscription databases for a particular project or paper and access tips from on or off-campus
Placing an item “request,” which prevents the current borrower from renewing the item and notifies the next borrower as soon as the item is returned
Requesting an interlibrary loan of books or journal articles from other cooperating libraries anywhere in the world
Recommending reliable web sites and giving advice about evaluating the reliability of the information on the open Internet
