RESEARCH CONFERENCE FORM

The purpose of this conference is to avoid research ěholesî, to ensure you have identified quality sources and havenít overlooked any significant sources or strategies before you complete your project. Schedule an appointment with the librarian to discuss your progress and bring your sources to discuss.  Be sure to schedule this appointment at least a week before your final project is due.  This conference is a project requirement.  Return this form to your teacher following your conference with the librarian.
