How could you integrate what Beth brought to the class into your academic activities? (Or, how could an Ohio State student use the lessons learned from Beth in their classes and academic work?)

Any student could integrate the knowledge Beth Black imparted into their academic work, in any class that requires any sort of research, or any class that requires a student find a book, or search for images or data. The how of how to use the library and its resources is important. Students do better academically when they utilize their library. Knowing how relatively simple it is now to find information can relieve stress before the assignment is even undertaken. The fact that OSU has access to so many databases available to any student who seeks them out opens a world of possibilities when it comes to any academic undertaking that requires the acquisition of sources.
