We LOVE research and a busy library! All day we are developing research questions with juniors and starting a group research paper in HELA 9! We squeezed 4 classes in during one block! Thanks to our teachers for being flexible! @bvlibraries

Our librarians have been having writing conferences with US History students for the last two weeks to help them improve their research, show comprehensive understanding of their topic and effectively use their arguments. We’ve really enjoyed the process! @bvlibraries
