Research Support Desk: Home

Drop-in research support at the library!


A librarian at the Research Support desk helps a student with her research on a laptop. A nearby computer monitor reads: The Research Support Desk is Open! Visit us for help at any stage of your research.

The Research Support Desk is staffed by librarians who are available to help you at any stage of your research. Some examples of support we can provide include:

  • Developing and refining research questions
  • Searching for articles, books and other sources
  • Using specialized databases such as Statista, Sage Data, HeinOnline, and more
  • Understanding citation styles

Need research support but can't make it to the desk? We still have you covered! You can set up a research consultation or email one of our librarians, chat with a librarian (available 24/7!), or check out our Getting Started with Research Guide
