Hi there! What brings you here to the library today?

Hi, I am working on a research report for my academic writing class. How about you?

I'm looking for some reference books to teach my literature class next week.

That's great. Maybe you can help me with my research report. I'm struggling a little bit with finding adequate sources.

Of course, I would love to help. What's your report topic?

It's about the impact of social media on mental health.

Oh, that's an interesting topic. Have you checked out any academic journals or databases yet?

Yes, I found a few articles on JSTOR, but I'm having trouble narrowing down my focus.

Well, it's important to stay focused on your thesis statement. Perhaps we can brainstorm some ideas together?

That sounds like a great idea. Maybe we could start by discussing the positive and negative effects of social media on mental health.

Absolutely. Firstly, social media can provide a sense of community and support. However, it can also lead to unrealistic expectations and cyberbullying.

Yes, those are excellent points. I think I have a better idea of how to structure my report now.

I'm glad to help. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions.

Thank you so much for your assistance. You're a great teacher and I appreciate your help.

Anytime, happy researching!
