What’s needed: Why is reference/instruction in academic libraries needed?

How you’ll fix it: Academic librarians are needed to provide informative, interesting, and relevant instruction to prepare future professionals to find and evaluate resources in their career paths.

Why it matters to the listeners: You’re going to encounter information in some way whether for research, evaluation, or general news, so it’s important to know how to find and evaluate appropriate resources from the irrelevant resources. Also, so everyone can become skilled experts in their own field, so when you’re working with a doctor, teacher, or a business in the future, you’ll know that they have the skills to provide you with the best information out there.
