Services for Students

The Library provides a variety of print, online, and technology resources for students. We also provide assistance and support for all research-related projects.

The Library offers a number of services available to all students, as described below.

One-to-One Help

Make a 15-30 minute appointment with a Library Liaison to help with your research.

Liaisons are the librarians that work most often with individual departments and are most familiar with the subject matter. Library liaisons can support your research interests by locating and recommending relevant information resources.
