Customer Reviews

Great tool for teaching a student how to use the library!

The book's great strength is its organization, making it extremely accessible to students. Libraries are indispensable resources for students of all ages, and not everyone knows how to use them to their best advantage. This book tells you how. I can't think of a better gift for a student- it will pay dividends throughout their life.
