Library Angst
While I was scrolling through ACRLblog’s Official Correspondent Site of the 13th Annual National Conference, I read the “anxious much?” and “Do you have anxeity about doing research” posts hinting at sessions or posters or discussions about research anxiety, research to support a successful tenure track chase, and research for students’ class assignments. I would love to hear more of the ACRL Conference discussions (As well as other venues) about these and how people are managing theirs or their students’ research angst.
Heavy drinking!
Seriously, though, I went to that session in large part because I work with a lot of international students every semester. I think that getting them into the library and having them make a connection with a librarian, whether it’s me or someone else, greatly reduces library anxiety.
