Want your appointment with a librarian to go quickly? Here are a few tips that should help you get signed off faster:
You have multiple options for getting your sources signed off.
1. Visit the library reference desk during open hours (8:00 - 7:00 Monday through Thursday, 8:00 - 3:30 on Fridays).
2. Get live chat help by accessing the Ask a Librarian service. Maple Woods librarians staff the chat service from 1:30pm to 7:00pm Mondays through Thursdays and 1:30pm to 3:30pm on Fridays.
3. You can also schedule a virtual research appointment with a librarian. Once you select a time, a librarian will send you a Zoom link. Slots are limited.
4. Email your sources and citations to erin.niederberger@mcckc.edu. Only do this as a last resort, as turnaround time may be slow.
When working with a librarian to sign off your sources, share your name. The librarian will email your instructor to tell her when they have approved your sources.
