Conclusions No statistically significant differences in citation patterns Citation behavior suggests embedded librarian program meets ACRL Standards Methodology can be useful for assessing Face-to-Face vs. online instruction, and is easily implemented by faculty and librarians

Limitations and Special Considerations Small Sample Size, only two semesters Unique citation patterns in MIS course (Current trade journals > peer-reviewed sources in business & technology) Narrow Research Question Does NOT explore instruction quality, simply whether students cite similar sources after receiving online vs. face-to- face library instruction

Further Study Expand Scope Timespan Additional courses Additional Institutions Expand Variables Currency of sources cited Average Bibliography size
