This study describes a series of interviews with humanities graduate students at UNC Chapel Hill. The interviews were conducted to determine ways in which humanities graduate students managed references for their academic papers. Thirteen graduate students in the fields of art history, classics and history were interviewed for an hour on the methods in which they manage bibliographic information, their exposure to technology growing up, reasons for changing or not changing methods, and the influence of others on that decision. The results of these open-ended interviews are useful in forming the basis for a more comprehensive study of bibliographic management by humanities graduate students by librarians so that better service can be offered to this population
