CONNECTING FROM OFF CAMPUS
Many library resources are available from off campus.
SCHEDULE A RESEARCH APPOINTMENT
Librarians can provide extensive help at the reference desk, but if you want to be sure that there will be enough time to fully explore your research question, please schedule a research appointment with one of the reference librarians.
RESEARCH GUIDES & COURSE GUIDES (LibGuides)
Need help finding appropriate research resources for your topic? The librarians have compiled numerous research guides covering a variety of subject areas (ex. art, business, education, literature, nursing, political science, theatre, toxicology). Typically a research guide includes information pertaining to selected library materials, online research databases, and web-based resources that are relevant to a respective individual subject area.
Course guides are also available for many classes. These research guides are made specifically for a given academic course and, in some cases, designed for a specific project assigned by the that course's instructor.
