Popis: Starting in 2011, implementation of Personal Research Sessions, or PRS, not only showed librarians at the College of the Holy Cross the success of one-on-one research appointments, but also led the reference program on a path of service-centered changes. This path includes fewer hours on the physical desk, a system of on-call reference shifts, an increase in reference student worker training, a semester-to-semester increase in PRS, and new goals for assessment. The authors discuss the state of student research at Holy Cross and their approach to reference service.
