Hello Answerland academic librarians,

At last week's training a couple of questions came up, to which I now have answers...


1)      Q: Are librarians expected to read and comment on student papers?
Tech help (using databases, catalog, LMS & other campus systems; logins; error messages)

Circ (find/access/request book/article/reserves/dissertations; account issues/questions)

(*a lot of academic libs embed Qwidget in their LMS/databases/catalog -- so get lots of questions about using those)

General research paper/project help (ex: thesis, narrowing topic, keywording, finding reliable sources/scholarly/peer-reviewed resources, citing sources)

Research:
- i'm trying to access info on UK bond yields in 2015 but not having much luck. can you help?
- I'm looking to obtain rights to use photos from a collection at the UCLA library for a not-for-profit film.
 - I am looking for LGBT population estimates for 2040 in the US
