چکیده

If you're looking for a comprehensive and thorough book about the complicated world of library research instruction and undergraduate research papers, this is the book for you. The editors of The New Digital Scholar have collected papers written by librarians, writing instructors, and higher education administrators to give interdisciplinary insight on what they have termed " NextGen Students. " The book is separated into four parts. The first two parts explore the problems with student research-writing and present studies on how students currently research. The third and fourth parts give pedagogical suggestions and programmatic implications of those findings. The editors have done a wonderful job selecting the articles and creating a logical flow of information from chapter to chapter. The resulting collection keeps the reader's interest as the conclusions from each chapter complement and build upon one another.
