Students who view the videos and send their feedback will be entered into a draw for a winter term Zone fitness membership.<\/p>\n<p>The Library offers a wide range of research support to students at Brock.\u00a0 Students can find in-person help from librarians and reference assistants at the help desk in the Matheson Learning Commons. They can also chat live with library staff through the &#8220;Live Help!&#8221; link on the Library home page. InfoSkills library workshops are offered in the Learning Commons from Jan. 26-29.\u00a0 In addition, there are dedicated liaison librarians for each academic program who can be contacted for in-depth consultations.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the research videos and to read student feedback, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/thisyearisgoingtobedifferent\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/thisyearisgoingtobedifferent<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Brock Library has launched a series of videos aimed at helping students become stronger researchers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":983,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[54],"tags":[25,24],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/984"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=984"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/984\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":987,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/984\/revisions\/987"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/983"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=984"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=984"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/brocku.ca\/brock-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=984"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
