• Broaden or narrow a research topic
• Help you find a textbook, ebook, or any books--in our library or materials we don’t have on-site
• Help you find peer-reviewed/scholarly articles
• Meet with you one-on-one to discuss research assignments
• Curate subject-specific research guides
• Provide guidance on citation formats
• Help you with your research and information needs
