A Variety of Ways to Get Help:

1. Ask a Librarian:

 

There are several different ways to contact a librarian, whether you are at home or on campus. You can contact us by phone, email, chat, or in person. Keep in mind your deadlines when choosing a resource:

Need immediate help?

• Call the Information & Research Help Desk (621-6442 or 621-6443)
• Use IM Chat to talk to reference staff and even browse web pages simultaneously.

 

Do you have a bit more time?

• E-mail Reference Service: Fill in the form online and you will get a response within 48 hours

Do you need more in-depth knowledge of a subject or resource?

• Contact a Subject Specialist: Call or email for assistance

 

2. When all Else Fails:

• Take a break from the search.

Sometimes stepping away from the search will help you see something you missed before.

• Move on to other research and come back to the challenging search later on.

Contact a colleague, your advisor or check the Comprehensive Search information. They may have some tips you have overlooked.

• Remember, you can always get help from a librarian!
