a veryclear process to follow” “The modules helped me think systematically, going element by element or section by sectionthrough the circuit to find the problem”DiscussionThe ability to follow a structured process when testing and troubleshooting electronic circuitsand devices is an important skill in instrumentation. Because of the broad nature of the field andthe rapid development of new technology, biomedical engineers are often exposed to newdevices and equipment that they are not familiar with. Developing a process to identify andrepair failure points in a structured manner is an important skill for bioengineering students.The troubleshooting modules were created based on common failure points that studentsencounter regularly in the

touse different software products other than Lab Archives alludes to the possibility thatadoption of software to organize research is possible. As the librarian who is a liaison toall of the sciences and engineering, perhaps a single lab notebook solution will not bethe answer to accommodate the different fields and different types of researchconducted on campus, whether bench research or computational research or otherwise.Investing in multiple software products is an option for the Library, however it is not aneconomically sound tactic. The Librarian should remain alert to the different researchneeds and continue to be cognizant of new software and technologies that have beendeveloped to meet researcher needs.Acknowledgement: Matthew Sumner
