My thanks to the following: Catherine Scott, who researched best practices in research skills instruction, and made five of the six demos; Cara Leitch, who made the EEBO demo, and with Brooklin Schneider and Marlon Griffith developed the first trial demo in Arts 303, under the direction of Kevin Harrigan; Vivian Schoner, who helped conceptualize the project; Ted McGee and Julia Mamolo, who let us record their expertise on video; Susan Bellingham and Jane Brittan, who facilitated our visit to the Rare Books Room; Diane Jakacki, who proofread and designed the testing; the Learning Initiatives Fund, which supported the project with a generous grant; my colleagues in the English department, especially Ted McGee (St. Jerome's University) and Kate Lawson, who have offered various kinds of help. Andrew McMurry took the videos, figured out how to put them on the website, and read everything as it was written; warmest thanks to him for this and more. The mistakes are my own.
