Research Services Tailored to Faculty

In addition to reference services, faculty should be aware of some specific services available to help them with the kinds of specialized or advanced research queries they are likely to have as follows:

• A liaison librarian works with an academic unit (e.g., a department or faculty) to ensure that the library-related needs (around research, teaching, and collections) of the unit’s faculty members and graduate students are addressed. Units differ in their cultures and traditions, so the details of a library liaison relationship will vary, but the bottom line is that you can contact your liaison librarian with any library-related question or concern.
• Subject librarians are available by appointment to assist graduate students with their research
