outside of their coursework. During their final year, engineering standardsare presented as standalone lecture in their senior capstone design course. Students prior orduring the same semester are presented with database and library resources for completingliterature reviews in a parallel course.The presentation of engineering standards is given just prior to project assignment. The timingof the instruction prior to the project assignments is because the first step after projectassignment is to complete a codes and standards worksheet (Appendix A) and realisticconstraints worksheet (Appendix B). After completing the worksheets the industry sponsors signoff on the scope of the project and standards utilized.Library instruction introduces students

building, the James B. Hunt Jr. Library. At this stage of the process,space- and service-model planning was initiated and in support of this work, various user studieswere undertaken. These studies, which were conducted up until the last months before thebuilding opened in January 2013, helped to answer planning questions, as well as build supportand awareness of the library among faculty and students.1 After the building opened, it quicklybecame apparent that assessment of the effectiveness of the new spaces and the service modelwas needed and as a result, more studies were initiated. The resulting body of five years ofresearch provides many practical insights into the needs and preferences of Hunt Library users.The Hunt Library is situated on

It's simply not feasible to carry multiple textbooks around, and not having it on-line would inhibit my ability to do homework problems from it and other textbooks while on campus.Focus Group ResultsFocus group students were engaged and happily willing to discuss eTextbooks and the library.We asked a series of eight questions (Appendix B) and allowed for tangents in the discussion asnecessary.eTextbook ProblemsOur most fruitful question was about problems the students ran into while using eTextbooks.These responses mirrored our survey responses about eTextbook problems, but we were able tolearn more details.

This number represents about 7% of theLibGuides that initially had the criteria for selection. The random process of selection in datacollection can provide a realistic representation of the total population and is a method normallyused in data collection14; this tool is used for data collection specifically when the contentanalysis has the potential of producing a staggering amount of data.
