Instant Answers: Just in Case You Don't Know

There are several categories of Questions to which many people feel they should already know the answer - but they don't. These are not "Dumb Questions" they're just not intuitive.

Some of the most common non-research question categories deal with:

• Citations: How do I do APA? MLA? 
• Printing: How to Print from your own computer
• Photocopying / Scanning: Get it from paper to a computer file

If you have a broad research question and need general info, try these links to questions about how to find articles or books.

If your question has not yet been asked... Please, Ask Us Anything!

When you ask your question you are also helping other students with the same question, we will make a public answer to your question, after we answer you, so the next person with your question will have an Instant Answer waiting.

We have a great set of Instant Answers which deal with printing (among a vast number of other topics)

Luhrs School Reads for the Record

Read for the Record is a national campaign to have as many children as possible in one day read or listen to the same book. 
In 2011, 2.2 million people participated in Jumpstart’s Read for the Record by reading Llama Llama Red Pajama by Anna Dewdney.
Ship's campus elementary school - Luhrs - participated today by listening to or reading Ladybug Girl and the Bug Squad by David Soman and Jacky Davis.  Many campus faculty and administrators read at Luhrs today, including Dr. Becky Overholtz (pictured).
