Encourage Students to Book a Research Help Appointment with a Librarian Today!

Please share the following information and link with your students to access MCC Libraries' research help appointment service:

We're pleased to provide a valuable service that can greatly benefit your students' academic success. MCC Libraries has observed an increase in students seeking drop-in research assistance, and we want to ensure that every student has access to the support they need.

We encourage students to schedule either in-person or online research help appointments to receive in-depth, one-on-one assistance from a knowledgable librarian.

Students can easily schedule appointments in 30-minute increments, which are ideal for starting research projects. Just share this scheduling form link (monroecc.libcal.com/appointments) with your students.

Our librarians can assist students with various research strategies, including:

  • Choosing and refining a topic
  • Evaluating online sources
  • Generating effective keywords
  • Navigating library database and other search tools
  • Differentiating between scholarly and popular sources
  • Citing sources and citation management tools

Feedback from students who've used our research help appointment service has been overwhelmingly positive. All students surveyed (n=46) reported increased confidence in their research abilities and a willingness to apply their newfound knowledge to their assignments. This feedback highlights the valuable support MCC Libraries provides in facilitating student learning and success.

We look forward to assisting your students with their research assignments!
