Students as Independent Researchers



Title: Students as Independent Researchers

Dear List,

For those of you in Special Collections and Manuscript Repositories with student employees:

Has anyone on the list created a policy allowing researchers to hire students to conduct research for them?  Often researchers requesting materials via telephone, mail, or email require more research/copying than the staff can provide.  I know of institutions that provide lists of independent researchers for those types of patrons. Anyone ever provided student assistants for that purpose?
