Research Assistance

We offer many ways for students, employees, and community members to receive research assistance.

Stop by anytime we are open to receive in-person research assistance at the desk. We are happy to help!

Chat online with a librarian 24/7, schedule a research appointment (online only), or send us an email

Schedule an appointment using our convenient online request system. Please provide as much detail as possible to help the librarian prepare for your appointment. 

We look forward to meeting with you!
