Students Studying Students: An Assessment of using Undergraduate Student Researchers in an Ethnographic Study of Library Use<\/a> “reports on the use of undergraduate students enrolled in an Applied Anthropology course as researchers for a library use study at Brigham Young University’s Harold B.

The student was taking a course in psychology that required him to develop a workplace behavioral intervention with a client and modify an important behavior for employee performance.”<\/p>\n

A Friendfeed discussion on Our library posts a newsletter called “Stall Times” in our bathrooms. A student using the pseudonyms “Mike Koch” and “Hugh Jass” recently made a parody called “Small Times.” Our creative manager contacted him and invited him to collaborate.<\/a> The conversation doesn’t go further in depth but does include links to archived bathroom newsletters from this and other libraries.<\/p>\n
