> Hi all,

> Looking at the syllabi for my classes, several of them will have a
> library day later in the semester. This library day is intended for
> research time. Can I request a reader for these days (one day per
> class)? I would want the reader throughout the class that day and
> after school for further research (I doubt I'll get it all done during
> the 1 hour class). Is this something I can request, or are readers
> generally only available after classes? Should I tell the professor I
> will have a reader that day, or just meet with the reader at the
> library and not bother the professor with information that won't
> effect the class?
>
> I've never used a reader before, so I'm not really sure about these
> things, but since I don't have a scanner yet and not all the resources
> I need are available from e-books or webistes, I know I'll need
> someone to help me with books in the library.
>
> I would be grateful for any advice on this specifically and using a
> reader in general.
