Your job as a scholar is to find the resources you need and create the content asked of you (i.e. research papers, verbal presentations, physical presentations and online presentations). Your job is NOT to spend countless hours trying to find those resources. When you find yourself spinning in a research circle or simply coming up empty, let your friendly librarians assist you.

At Mesa College we have a variety of ways you can contact a librarian, see our "Ask A Librarian" page on the Mesa Library website for all the details.
