At the Reference Desk
Brief musings while working at the Reference Desk
Yikes, how do you know we're getting near the end of the quarter? Everyone's doing a research paper!
Got asked on IM if I was having a 'good day'. Of course, I replied and then asked if the person had a research question. 'No, that's all I wanted to know. Thanks!'
Today's funny: Got an IM from a student asking who to contact for an overdue book. I texted him the phone number for Access Services. Student replied back that he'd call once his class was over. Um, right.
Latest Chat Request: 'I'm looking for an article. All I have is 'Bell 2014'. Is that enough?'
(Question of the Day): "For how much time can I ask you questions?" I told him we were open till nine.
Bingo! Got my first 'Do-U-Have-My-Textbook???' question -- and the school year doesn't even begin till next week!
Complaints upstairs about someone playing the trumpet in one of the computer labs. Oy.
