Discipline Liaison Librarians
How to Get Help in Your Discipline
Librarians do not conduct research for students but will encourage and help them begin their own research, write their own papers, and create their own bibliographies. Librarians will help you with research and in understanding how to evaluate information sources. Professional staff may suggest that students contact the Writing and Learning Center, the Online Writing Center, or the Writing Support offered by the Office of Research and Graduate Studies.
Librarians also assist faculty in determining which resources best support their information needs and in developing appropriate information literacy and co-curricular support services and resources. For direction in determining which librarian can work in developing information literacy supports, please contact Leslie Todd.
