Library research, instruction, and

engagement: Research assistance, consultation, and workshops are provided by a team of research librarians. Research assistance is available to students and faculty not only at the ASK/Research desk, but via consultations, e-mail, text, and telephone.

Librarians provide instruction to students, in collaboration with faculty, in the use of print and digital resources that support course and project-based learning. They also manage print and digital collections to provide resources that support degree programs and campus curriculum. Librarians work collaboratively with faculty on academic research projects via the URI (Undergraduate Research Institute) research grant projects, Scholarly Commons (an open access institutional repository for academic research), the CTLE (Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence), and the general education curriculum, helping to embed course learning, instructions, and assessment at all levels.
