As I continue to do research for my culture site project I find more questions to ask about resources to use to find information so I was very willing to contact a librarian to ask for help. I went to the Valley Library to see if I could meet with Jane Nichols to ask her to help me find various resources in looking up Pattie Maes. I wasn’t able to meet with her so I followed the provided link to chat with a librarian. A lady from Tigard Public Library was available to assist me. I asked her to help me find a specific Time Digital article from 2009 that had a cover story on Ms. Maes. The librarian searched ArticleFirst and GeneralOneFile but was unable to find the article. She continued searching for me but still wasn’t successful. Although she couldn’t find the article she provided alternative places for me to search as she was continuing to search as well. Neither of us found the article, but she was offered to have the librarians here at OSU to follow up with me if they had any other ideas of places to search. I was disappointed that we couldn’t find the article I was looking for, but very pleased with the interaction with her. She was helpful and polite while working with me and I really appreciate her contacting other people to help search for the magazine article.
