Ryan’s use of data that was originally collected for another purpose (to see how often librarians were turning to electronic sources over print in answering reference questions) means that she is limited from the outset in the conclusions she can draw, as she has to build a methodology on someone else’s foundation.	cache/eblip-5624.pdf	txt/eblip-5624.txt
