During the school year, general research assistance is available in person at the Research Help Desk. The desk is staffed by student research assistants with librarians always on call for more complex questions (or simply if you would prefer to speak with a librarian). The Research Help Desk is co-located with the Circulation Desk on the 2nd floor of the library, with assistance available during the following times:
Monday-Thursday: 10am-4pm
Friday: 10am-2pm
The above hours apply during semesters; J-term hours may vary.
