Q. Where can I get help with research?

There are a number of resources you can use!

You can start by searching in the QuickSearch box on the homepage. Use this guide to determine what keywords will be most effective in finding resources on your topic. You can also use this guide to optimize your search results using terms AND, OR, and NOT. This guide provides more helpful tips and tutorials on doing research using library resources.

Need some help? We are offering In Person and Virtual Reference Services so that you can access help from a librarian by visiting the Information and Research Help Desk on the 1st floor of the Consortium Library, or through email, call, text, or chat. You can access the Virtual options on the Ask Us page. Find the hours for our Reference Services hours page of the library website.

If you have an in-depth research question and you would like to meet with one of subject librarians, visit this page to see a list of subject librarians. Click on any of their names to find their contact information. From the librarian's profile page, you can schedule an appointment by clicking on "Research Guides" and then "Schedule an Appointment."
