Transitioning to College is a video exploration of how college life can be different and confusing to a new student. OK, the vids are a little hokey, but they are true and real, quick and useful. 3 of the 5 sections focus on library info.

Good database.” No, not really, but using ANDs ORs and truncation makes a big difference.
