What do you do?

What do you do when one of your biggest primary sources for your senior thesis literally disappears, never to be seen or heard from again? Poof! :S



Damn sorry to hear about your loss... I lost my keys last weekend, so I know EXACTLY how you feel. Maybe you can do what I did... Those hardware stores seem to have just about everything these days.:D

No, but really, that sucks. I actually did almost have something very similar happen recently... Hard drive failure. I was a dumbass and didn't back-up the hard drive that had my entire final school project on it (500+ hours of work)... Luckily, I only lost a little bit though...

Call a Librarian. I'm dead Serious. They get their PhD in Library Science so they can understand Exactly how information is managed and they will know exactly what to do when this happens.
Don't go to the dinky "reference desk" person who shushes you all the time. Get a librarian with an office. Curriculum Reference Librarian would be my #1 choice. They KNOW how to handle information crisis. It's their job.

My Sister has her PhD in Library Science and can literally do miracles in information management. I never took it seriously until I had almost the exact same thing happen to me. Ask a librarian.

I know what that is like. A human subjects desk jockey screwed up my senior thesis. Now it's just a lame analysis of prior data.. no running subjects for me.

Apparently showing pictures and asking people with a language disorder to name them is now high risk.:S

Good luck on working yours out! What exactly happened?
