(You know I&#8217;ve been reading Sirc&#8217;s book slow and steady, until<br \/>\nrecently: concerned about <i>bread only<\/i>.)&nbsp; I want to avoid the way of<br \/>\ntalking about Q&amp;<i>D<\/i> research that ordains the library (and its subscription<br \/>\ndatabases) <i>alone<\/i>.&nbsp; We already have a hundred ways of talking about<br \/>\nBoolean strings into ProQuest, and if we run dry on ways of talking about such<br \/>\nthings, we can schedule entire class sessions where a librarian will break it<br \/>\ndown, work through examples and prove the merits of every database we wish to<br \/>\nquery.&nbsp; Now someone might mistake me to be saying that I don&#8217;t think<br \/>\nstudents should understand how to undertake library research.&nbsp; Nah. Not so.&nbsp;<br \/>\nI love the library. I even have a Friends of the Library membership card for my<br \/>\nundergrad alma mater for kicking in a few bucks and earmarking it for books.&nbsp;<br \/>\nI have seventeen borrowed books right here. But they&#8217;re not in accordance with<br \/>\nQ&amp;D research. But I think a Q&#038;D method doesn&#8217;t strive to eliminate the happen(ings)stance&#8211;chance encounters, unpredictability, surprising messes.  As for the &#8220;quick&#8221; in this tandem, I suppose it&#8217;s clear enough that it refers to the temporal quality of a process, the truism of time as a aspect of any event.
