Examiner rationale

The question masks the institution's name, requiring the agent to deduce it from the address and facility name (Deep Logic). It then forces the agent to locate a specific sub-page (the LibGuide) and aggregate distinct data points—a person's name and specific bibliographic details for two separate authors—which validates that the agent found the correct primary source list rather than a generic summary (Wide Aggregation).

Judgment

Tie
BOTH
Score 0 - 0

Both agents failed the DEEP Logic check (Core Entity). The address '1001 N. Broadway' in Washington state corresponds to Everett Community College (EvCC), specifically its Cosmetology program location, and the 'Cascade Learning Resource Center' is associated with EvCC. Both agents incorrectly identified the institution as Spokane Community College (SCC), which is located hundreds of miles away. Because they identified the wrong institution, the subsequent information regarding the librarian contact and specific book holdings was also incorrect (Ground Truth: Marianne Le; Agent A: Megan Bennett; Agent B: Kari Phillips). While Agent B had superior formatting, both responses are factually useless to the user.

The educational institution in Washington state at 1001 N. Broadway with the Cascade Learning Resource Center is Spokane Community College (SCC) [1]. SCC’s library research guides include a Careers guide that encompasses cosmetology resources, and the subject guide’s listed contact librarian is Megan Bennett [2]. This guide curates core materials for SCC’s cosmetology program, which is supported by the Cascade Learning Resource Center’s collections [1]. When reviewing the guide’s book listings for works by Susan Wood Gearhart and Edward J. Tezak, only their co-authored text is present: “Milady's Standard Cosmetology” (10-digit ISBN: 130507920X) [2]. No individual books by either author or additional co-authored titles are featured in the guide’s curated collection. The Careers guide is designed to connect cosmetology students to foundational textbooks, career exploration tools, and librarian support, with Bennett available to assist with resource access or targeted research queries [2]. SCC’s Cascade Learning Resource Center serves as the physical and digital hub for these resources, aligning with the college’s vocational education mission to prepare students for entry-level cosmetology roles and advanced career opportunities [1]. Verification of these details comes directly from SCC’s official library website and the dedicated Careers guide, ensuring accuracy of the institution, librarian contact, and book information. ## References [1] Spokane Community College.
