Perspective: Research at Penn

“The library is talking about a pizza box advertising campaign. They’re half kidding, but touting self-promotion and stretching for solutions is exactly the idea.”

“It’s the battle between Google and the library — and Google just might be winning.”

“I had a senior history major in the other day asking how to use [library] research databases,” Assistant Director for Research and Instructional Services at Van Pelt Library, Marjorie Hassen says. With four years of Ivy League college under his belt, not to mention a reading and writing intensive history major, “you’d think he would have done a lot of research before.” (from The Daily Pennsylvanian – Thanks Genie)
