Day 1 focuses on helping students define their research questions or topics and develop research strategies for finding information on their topics.

Day 2 focuses on helping students navigate the library’s databases to find needed sources. Tips and tricks on how to get better Google results will also be taught.

Day 3 covers ideas on how to put research together in a digital format, including the different website vendors that can be used to share research as well as general guidelines on graphic design.
